Taking a step back, even though the tooling and packaging formats are different, it is a massive benefit to OpenStack and to operators if the end result of installing OpenStack packages on any distro is as similar as possible. To that end, this should be one unified packaging team focused on delivering a usable OpenStack through the distros.
