Re: [Openstack-poc] 3rd Party APIs
+1, primarily by process of elimination. The other options seem either too permissive or too strict. I think our job is to provide a way for the ecosystem to develop and give people a place and category for these projects to live, but not to micromanage every piece of the ecosystem.

I'd also be a fan of making that a per-release designation, with an easy renewal if the commitment is still in place. Generally, a smaller core with a "supported" status for satellite projects is my favorite model, for much of OpenStack development. I don't have very strong feelings on that subject. My gut feeling would be to support (c), but I could be convinced by a strong argument why we shouldn't. I feel the same way. (c) sounds good, but I'm not married to it... If that's the decision we end up taking, the PPB discussion quickly shifts to defining the taxonomy of OpenStack projects. On this subject and others that were raised at the Design Summit (like plug-ins), Core/Incubated/Other doesn't really cut it anymore. In particular I'd like to have at least one category for projects that are essential to the OpenStack development community but should not be part of the OpenStack core "product" (the IaaS stack of projects with a coordinated release every 6 months). Openstack-common, openstack-ci, or things we gate the core product on (devstack, tempest) should never be part of OpenStack Core (or ever be incubated to become core). However they are necessary for us to produce OpenStack core, and require our collective attention and support. So they need to be blessed in some kind of "official" category meaning they are an central part of "OpenStack" as a development community. Maybe "OpenStack Companion project"... I don't necessarily view openstack-ci and openstack-common in the same vein. I think openstack-common actually should be part of core since it is an important dependency for so many of the core projects (and becoming more so...). Openstack-ci, tempest and devstack are also critical pieces, but they are support projects, not necessarily dependencies. So I would categorize them as "OpenStack Supporting Projects" or similar. Another category could be necessary to describe external projects/plug-ins that are continuously tested with OpenStack Core as part of our integration testing and for which we therefore have a pretty good idea of how well they work with OpenStack. Choosing the right term is a bit more tricky here since most names are a bit overloaded. Maybe "OpenStack recommended project/plugin"... The term "recommended" comes with a lot of baggage :) I don't want plugins to be recommended or suggested -- at least by the community; companies should feel free to recommend or suggest whatever they feel is best for their distro or deployment.

Re: [Openstack-poc] 3rd Party APIs
I'd definitely go for option c here. I'm one of those Core Developers you mention that wants less code in the core repos. We also need to make sure the right people are maintaining that API code, which aren't necessarily the *-core teams.
