</span>There is one catch, though: after we merge the first Juno-only patch, we<br>
can no longer easily merge patches destined for both Icehouse and Juno (we<br>
would have to backport them). Therefore, it would be good to know if the<br>
patches under review are Juno-only or also good for Icehouse.<br>
<br>
FWIW, my patches are all for Icehouse and Juno, and I will not submit<br>
Juno-only patches until a) the Juno branch is cut or b) a patch that is<br>
clearly Juno-only has been merged.<br>

and the files they create:<br>

creates landslide structure for the guides<br>
-------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
This landslide structure brings a whole lot of redundancy: identical<br>
files in four copies. As long as we only have the associate-guide, we<br>
only need the structure for one guide, so we could merge a patch limited<br>
to that. Once we have a second guide, we need a better structure with<br>
less redundancy.<br>

<br>
Looks like chapter 5 is missing. Also, the file names are not consistent<br>
(e.g. 03-controller-node.rst vs. 07-associate-network-node.rst).<br>
<br>
IMO each conversion patch should remove the XML file it replaces; we<br>
want to reduce redundancy, not add to it.<br>
<br>
RST files in OpenStack repos are line-wrapped at 80 characters, but these<br>
converted files are not.<br>
<br>
The converted files are supposed to be slides (similar to the<br>
upstream-training slides), but they are not. They look like books split<br>
into slide-sized bits (and even then, several slides have content<br>
overflowing). The proposed 01-getting-started.rst is 50 KB! This would not<br>
give us any of the benefits we were hoping for when we decided to replace<br>
books with slides.<br>
