One idea for collaboration - bring it into the openstack-manuals repo and use conditional output for the screenshots for the SUSE Cloud dashboard, output two different guides, like we do for install guides. Does that make sense? It might get translated quicker by being in the OpenStack ecosystem. It's definitely a document we could then expand upon with tutorials and use cases.<div>

I do have to compliment the writer or writers on the organization and clarity of these guides.

I'm part of SUSE's cloud team and talked with my colleague Tanja Roth from the SUSE documentation team this week and wanted to followup with all of you after my vacation (which starts now and goes for two weeks). But your nice summary contains one point where I think I should answer directly:<div>

2. High priority doc work:<br>
Diane's working on a user guide, as part of the refactoring. Please<br>
review the outline at<br>

We at SUSE have released our SUSE Cloud - which is a distribution based on OpenStack - and have three manuals available, you can see all of them at:<br>
<a href="https://www.suse.com/documentation/suse_cloud10/" target="_blank">https://www.suse.com/<u></u>documentation/suse_cloud10/</a><br>
<br>
There's also a user guide - and looking at the blueprint and at the table of contents of SUSE's guide, I see a lot of high level overlap. Thus, I wanted to point this out to everybody so that you can discuss whether and in which way collaboration is possible.<br>
<br>
The SUSE Documentation is under the Apache license and we can share our XML sources for them,<br>
