Based on suggestions and comments on the threads around sub-project, I
suggest we add the following guide for new projects.
Most of the content from Anthony.
fire away with comments... when we are happy with it, I'll post it.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A Project that wants to join oVirt should follow the following basic
guidelines:
1) Project posts an overview page on ovirt.org/wiki, including scope and
short term roadmap to ovirt.org wiki. That page is then copied as a mail
to board at ovirt
2) There is an official comment period that lasts for a period of time
up to 3 weeks. This time period allows for questions to be enhanced, and
the wiki to be improved. Projects can complete this stage faster,
however the key is provide enough time for discussion.
3) At any point in this time period, the proposal can be officially
withdrawn.
4) At the end of the period or once there seems to be consensus, there
is a final call for comments before a vote takes place. If the thread's
comments die down, then a VOTE thread can be used to move the process along.
Include the following information on the overview wiki page
