[libvirt] Libvirt Application Development Guide Using Python is now complete

[Pete Travis]

If the libvirt team wants to take responsibility for maintenance of these
documents, and you as the writer would prefer to maintain them in the
libvirt context, I don't see a problem with moving the repo there.

That said, I don't want to be in a position where we publish something at
docs.fp.o that Fedora Docs writers cannot maintain, so if 'upstream' git
moves there, we won't publish here.

By first impulse kinda mirrors the conversation we had last week; the work
is permissively licensed, if someone wants to use it, they can.  If it
stays in fedorahosted, there the libvirt team is welcome to maintain a
'fork' ( in the most positive possible sense of the word ).  Merge workflow
with multiple remotes isn't that bad, and if we really want to do pull
request style collaboration, we can put it on pagure.

So, I have lots of thoughts - anyone else?
