I'd prefer to see the scheduler filter docs be maintained in the<br>
nova devref where they are close to the source, versioned, and<br>
reviewed by the nova team when there are scheduler filter changes<br>
or new filters added.<br>

<br>
For now, I think this is best. When and if the scheduler is a<br>
separate entity, it will need its own docs; nova will still need to<br>
document *its* filters, but not *how to* filter.<br>

So, the config-ref docs are auto-generated continually via automation scripts from the help text of options. And, IMO, this is A Good Thing.<br>
<br>
In this case, the end user of this information is the cloud admin -- the person who creates flavors and tags compute nodes with capability extra specs. The target audience for this information is not really the Nova developer.<br>
<br>
Now, if there are sections of the devref that need to inform the *developer* about some weird intricacies of the scheduler filters (and frankly, this is kind of one of them), then I think it's OK to have slightly duplicate information. It depends on the target audience. In this particular case, I think it's fine to duplicate a little.<br>
