<div>I would like to propose to the opentack-dev mailing list that for commits that require doc changes ("DocImpact"), there must be sufficient information in the commit message for a member of the doc team to use this info to update the docs (i.e., we shouldn't need to go splunking through the code diff).</div>

I don't know how that's going in reality, though. But you are certainly in the right to do so, and it seems very legit from a documentor's perspective that you want more info. CCing Michael in case he has more input on how it's going, asking for info in commit messages.</div>
