The release team only takes care of Big Tent projects, documentation and translation teams are not covering independent projects - including using the docs.openstack.org web site for publishing. Even in the Big Tent you are not forced to release at a specific release milestone. We don't have stackforge anymore by name, just by spirit: you can create a repo for this as independent project as openstack/delimter, Note that you can also start now under an existing project - like keystone, glance or oslo - and later spin off as separate independent team. Starting off independent is fine in general - it just really strikes me as odd that a cross-project effort considers itself outside of the Big Tent, Andreas > > > [1] Personally, I do not care of where it lives after it has been > adopted by a few different projects.
