<div>I’d definitely just do a directory listing on the source code.  Syncing the docs is something we do before a major release.  Things are just changing too quickly to do anything else. </div>

<div dir="ltr">Also, since I'm looking into how the current supported Congress tables will support use cases of the OPNFV Copper project [1], it will be also helpful to know where I would look for the set of potential policy-related data items inside
 OpenStack docs/code for the various components. If I find a gap against a use case, I would want to be able to specify related patches (e.g. where data source driver extensions should get the additional data) so I need to know where the data comes from (and
 what's available) inside OpenStack.<br>

<div>One of Congress’s goals is to make any data available via an API call to policy-related.  So anything the API calls of OpenStack returns are reasonable candidates for writing policy over.</div>
