I understand the sentiment here, but I feel that we should be consistent
about this across the archive. We've already done the same for bitcoin
and owncloud, though I think that was based on upstream sentiment.

drupal7 -> drupal8 really just maintains the status quo here.

If we want to drop drupal, we should also consider other similar
packages like wordpress IMHO.

Perhaps something to ask ubuntu-devel or the TB to consider.
