Do you have someone in mind to lead this objective?
Not that I've specifically talked to about that yet.
If so, is there a reason they didn't propose this themselves?
Release early release often? I wanted to start the conversation — this isn't a real proposal yet.
OpenShift is a large complex platform, if we don't have buy in from the OpenShift teams themselves I think we'll end up in a situation where we're constantly chasing our tail and all the issues involved and it won't be pretty for anyone. Having dealt with OpenShift Enterprise on premise I feel this is something everyone needs to buy into for it to be a success otherwise you end up with a bad experience for all Fedora, OpenShift and worse the end user.
That said, a lot of the core lower level components of OpenShift v3, like kubernetes, are already packaged and actively maintained in Fedora, assuming they don't need massive forks and need to be maintained twice, and because it uses docker as the container format and supports any of them it means we don't need to deal with cartridges and hell surrounding those I feel it's more likely to be an easier task over all than the previous attempt..... but there's a bunch of assumptions there ;-)
