There's something we have been discussing in infrastructure that seems related to this: namely how we communicate the support level or 'officialness' of a service. The current proposal is to use domain names to do this, ie, if it's fedoraproject.org it's a fully supported official service, if it's fedorainfracloud its less official and supported, and if it's fedoracommunity.org it's something that the community is providing with no particular support. There would likely be some other domains involved, but this would allow us to use our current RFR (request for resources) process for "official" services, but allow other services to use other processes that are lower barrier, etc. Then if later some fedoracommunity service turned out popular/useful, it could graduate to a fully supported service, or in turn some currently official service could move out to a fedoracommunity service and if no one helped support it eventually go away. kevin
