[aerogear-dev] [feedhenry-dev] Upstream Community Documentation

[Wei Li]

+1 on Dave's idea to move mobile.next work to the AG community. I would
also add that:

* Rethink/Rebrand the objective of the AG project. I think it should be
something that is close to what we have for mobile.next
* In the meantime, make it clear that the FH community will still be
maintained, but it will only cover for the existing RHMAP projects.

Hopefully this will avoid future confusing around which community is for
what purpose. It will also allow us to continue support the AG community
that (I think) have more community users than FH.

Thanks.
