My understanding is this is due to openstack-infra being TC-governed and
opendev not quite having gotten around to establishing an official
non-TC governance yet.  I think the intent is to eventually do that.  We
could probably anticipate that a bit if we would like and go ahead and
sort openstack-infra things into different buckets.  At the end of this,
I think we will all have more hats, with overlap between opendev and
openstack.  Some current infra activities and repos are
openstack-specific and should be re-homed into openstack; others serve
all projects and should be in opendev; yet more are just things that are
incidentally related to what we do and should be on their own.

I've produced a list based on my estimation of what things will look
like at the end of the process.  This is just a starting point if we
would like to explore this option.  We could refine the list and use it,
or we could choose to stick with the status quo temporarily and move the
infra repos out of openstack at a later time when things are more clear.
