If that's all you want, I guess you should simply open an infra ticket, no?
I want to discuss the issue and possible solutions

Perhaps do something slightly different: Use a subdir, or a subdomain,
such as
go.ovirt.org/imageio or
ovirt.org/go/imageio, and ask for this
place to be managed using a git repo somewhere (in gerrit or elsewhere), so
that when you merge there stuff, something updates the namespace
automatically. This way you do not need to ping infra per each project.
This is nicer since using "ovirt.org/name" for a go module prevents
using this name for something else.
But hopefully we can do this using the current ovirt site
infrastructure, for example
adding a wiki page with a special metadata key, or syntax that will generate
the <meta> tag like:
---
title: oVirt ... Go module
meta: name=... content=...
---
Page text...
This way the same page can also contain useful content about the resource.
