this question was largely unanswered at the time we did the repo the way
it is now..

the problem is - the scope of this would be large enough that anyone can
manage it, and everyone can get involved. But I dont want to do this as
a part of the Core effort, that closes too many doors. But the SIGs are
too specialised in their outlook to curate something of this nature.

The only group in a suiteable place to perhaps take ownership of a
resource like that would be the docs group - so we do a community
contributed setup there, and the build services retail their own
metadata ( which is what the atomic / docker / cloud stuff is ) as and
when and where they need it.

I dont think we should do that, content metadata for specific roles
should stay within those roles. Otherwise were just looking towards
running a single svn ( or cvs?) repo with absolutely everything and the
kitchen sink in there.
