Ohai! The entry point to Chef OpenStack, the openstack-chef-repo, is being retired in favor of openstack/openstack-chef. As such, the watch ends for openstack/openstack-chef-repo.
From a Chef perspective, openstack-chef-repo has been a perfectly adequate name, due to the prevalence of monorepos called 'chef-repo'. In the Chef ecosystem, this makes perfect sense back in 2014 or 2015. In more recent time, based on the outsider perspective from people who were not nearly as immersed in the nomenclature, "why do you call it repo?" had started to emerge as a FAQ. Both repositories were created with the same intent: the junction of OpenStack and Chef. However, openstack-chef existed before its time, boxed and packed away to the attic long before Chef OpenStack was even a notion. With the introduction of documentation being published to docs.o.o, it seemed like the logical time to migrate the entry point back to openstack/openstack-chef. With assistance from infra doing the heavy lifting for unretiring the project, openstack-chef was brought down from the attic and de-mothballed. At the time of this writing, no new changes are being merged to openstack-chef-repo, and its jobs are noop. Focus has shifted entirely to openstack/openstack-chef, with it being the entry point for Zuul jobs, as well as Kitchen scenarios and documentation. All stable jobs going back to stable/ocata have been migrated, with the exception of the Cinder cookbook's Ocata release. It no longer tests cleanly due to the detritus of time, so it will remain in its current state.
