I think we should evaluate our modules and define together which ones are well 
tested, widely-used so we can tag them "core" (ie:
puppet-nova). Otherwise I would suggest using "incubating" tag (ie:
puppet-gnocchi).

[Rockyg] Tags are great, but please don't overload them!  "Core" should be 
reserved or even never used, as it has so many (and so loaded) meanings.  
Perhaps follow some of the other suggestions: experimental for new projects 
until they are "mature," then remove the tag.  The assumption should be that 
*unless* something is labeled, it should be considered well tested and widely 
used.

The good stuff shouldn't need labels; the new stuff should have the warning 
labels.
