Description

Two ideas were floated around:

* Chart to group them into "actively being developed", "bug fix only", and so on.
* A dashboard like [Astropy Project Dashboard](http://www.astropy.org/astropy-dashboard/status.html) that displays similar info as above, but it scraps the info from some special repo metadata (repo topics or a special JSON/YAML file at root dir).

Once set, the scopes should be communicated clearly to the rest of the Astropy community.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the Astropy Project Dashboard linked in the issue and the related astropy/package-template#497 discussion. Define the product-scope categories and decide whether their source should be repository topics or a root JSON/YAML file; done means the scopes are agreed, displayed consistently, and clearly communicated to the Astropy community.
