Why isn't this a kubernetes-sigs repo? Why didn't this get approved through sig-arch?

[andrewsykim]

@spiffxp we already went through sig-arch approvals for kubernetes/cloud-provider-* repos (see https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/kubernetes-sig-architecture/soeIadIeMCs). It also wouldn't make sense for us to host the actual provider repos in kubernetes but host the sample repo in kubernetes-sigs. Having everything in kubernetes-sigs is something we intend to do eventually (though not urgent).

I came across this repo while working on kubernetes/steering#28 and have created a PR to add template files (LICENSE, CONTRIBUTING.md, README.md, code-of-conduct.md): kubernetes/cloud-provider-sample#1.

The README description is based on the description provided here. PTAL. :)
