I think its still unclear for a user what will be the diff between those 2
repos.
We need first to list the Ansible use cases that are possible within Lago:

   1. Using Ansible to install Lago for a user ( + optionally run a test
   suite, like ovirt-system-tests)
   2. Using Ansible to install Lago for developer (might be similar to 1
   only with more deps installed )
   3. Using Ansible as Dynamic Inventory Script [1]
   4. Using Ansible as deployment scripts ( should be in the relvant
   project, like OST )
   5. ?? probably there are more.

Once we agree on the set of 'roles' Ansible can take, we can decide on the
repos to hold them.
