I am strongly +1 for a new project mostly because there is no common
code between maas and  maas-ephemerals-v2.

I'm +0 for a new team.  I can see why having maas-maintainers would be
useful, but OTOH those who maintain the images are generally nothing to
do with the upstream development.  I'd tend to a new team that contains
maas-maintainers if necessary.
