After talking to Lyz, that community has decided to relocate their
discussions to the #opensourceinfra channel, so has granted control
of #openinfra to us as of 2020-12-22 (and I officially added it to
our channel access management bot last week). Conversations there
aren't logged yet, and it would be nice of us to leave that channel
itself unused and their forwarding address in the topic for a while
still, but we should be able to proceed with making use of the
namespace for renaming/recombining our existing foundation-specific
channels to #openinfra-whatever as time permits.
