OK. No problem at all on the 4 distinct statuses. Makes sense :) In
fact, it might be nice to use these SERIES_INFO to do slight color
shifts. Like EOL = red, Latest release = Green, etc... Then we could
put a little key on the main docs page and in an info icon on the banner
so people know what they're looking at. Thoughts?<br>

<div>For example, we can update the pike docs now but when that<br>branch
goes EOL we want the text to update to say that without us<br>having to
rebuild the pike docs. Ideally we would be able to just update<br>the
SERIES_INFO settings and the next time a pike page is loaded the<br>correct
badge will appear.<br></div>

Right. We could grab the variable and populate the value using
javascript w/o having to go back and edit all the old docs. The more
automated we can make it the better :)<br>

__pbrmquotes="true" class="__pbConvBody">Hi all -
<br>
<br>I'm following up on the PTG action item to add a CSS banner for
older
releases (e.g. <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://releases.openstack.org/newton/index.html">https://releases.openstack.org/newton/index.html</a>). Does
anyone have specific language they'd like to see here or should I just
riff it?
<br>
<br>I was considering a CSS overlay similar to what you see when you
scroll
down below the nav (e.g. <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.openstack.org/software/security/">https://www.openstack.org/software/security/</a>).
Here's a quick comp: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.screencast.com/t/Kbz0Sh8uRb7">https://www.screencast.com/t/Kbz0Sh8uRb7</a>
<br>
<br>If you like the direction this is going, I'll send along to people
that
are real designers (not me).
<br>
<br>Cheers,
<br>Jimmy
