Mark T. Voelker d8fb682a2b Change doc references to DefCore
At the Board of Directors meeting on April 24, 2016 the Board of
Directors indicated that as DefCore has evolved it's focus on
interoperability and it's working structure, it's name may be a source
of some confusion to those outside of the community or who are new to
the community.  The Board made an informal request that the DefCore
Committee consider changing it's name to more clearly reflect it's focus
and structure.

This patch is the first step in that process.  It updates references
in various documents to change the name "DefCore Committee" to
"Interop Working Group" as agreed at the summer 2016 DefCore Committee
Sprint [1].

It should be noted that this patch should be considered a work in
progress to generate discussion until the new name is approved by
the DefCore Committee and the Board of Directors.  Should we elect
to go forward with the new name, some other actions will also need
to be taken, including but not limited to:

1. We will need to consider updating references on the OpenStack wiki.
2. We will need to consider updating the name of our IRC channel,
   mailing list, Launchpad project, and git repository.  Most of these
   changes will need to be carefully coordinated with the OpenStack
   Infrastructure team.
3. We will need to take into account external resources that point to
   DefCore artifacts, such as Foundation-maintained websites (such as:
   http://www.openstack.org/interop ).
4. We will need to coordinate with RefStack to minimize impact.
5. We will need to clearly communicate the name change to the rest of the
   community.

Note also that I've intentionally left many historical documents that
have been superceded (such as the 2015A process docs, Guidelines that
are no longer used, etc) in tact.  There seemed little value in
spending time on them and cluttering the patch with them since they're
now obsolete.

Platform and Program Capabilities
=================================
::
The following was approved by the OpenStack Board.
Extend the Interop WG principles to allow for multiple levels: programs and
platforms. Programs represent subsections of the overall platform. In some
cases, it is acceptable for a program identified without being included in
the platform. New programs are added at Foundation recommendation via board
approval. Programs are added to the platform via board approval.
The initial programs will be Compute & Object. The Platform will
require the Compute program, Object program and additional capabilities.
Havana Approved: The Compute Program will consist of the following
capabilities:
* compute-servers
* compute-volume
* compute-quotas
* compute-flavors
* compute-auth
* compute-keypairs
* compute-servers-metadata
* compute-floating-ips
* compute-images
* compute-instance-actions
* compute-security-groups
Havana Approved: The Object Program will consist of the following
capabilities:
* objectstore-object,
* objectstore-container
Havana Approved:: The Platform will consist of all the capabilities in the
Compute and Object programs and the following capabilities:
* images-v1
* volume
* volume-snapshots
