This isn't a perfect solution, but maybe instead of projects.yml there
could be a `registry.yml` project that would (of course) have all the
project.yml "in-tent" projects, but also merge in external project
requests for namespaces?
Where ever it is stored, could this be a solid place for the api-wg to
codify the string that should be shown in the catalog / headers /
other places by services?
this seems like a reasonable approach, the big downside might be
grooming the "dibs" list. we could have projects that expect to go
somewhere, register their name, then never achieve "lift-off". in these
cases we would need to release those names back into the free pool.
There could be some kind of reaping process, say every January send an
email to every project with outstanding "dibs" to check that they still
exist and want that name.
I think a 1 year TTL would be a good starting spot, does that help?

Personally, I don't feel like reservations should exist for non
OpenStack projects. That's just squatting and locks away resources from
actual openstack projects.
Yeah, but I feel like there would be a lot of benefit to some kind of
system where not-openstack-yet projects could say "we want to use X as a
generic name" so it's not a surprise when two projects show up and want
in the tent, but then one of them has to go change its service.
For example, I think "containers" will be one of those words that
everyone wants to use (buzzbuzzbuzzbuzz). Having at least a way for
projects to say "hm, someone else wants this" would be nice.
