OpenStack Documentation Wrap Up for 2013 http://www.openstack.org/blog/2014/01/openstack-documentation-wrap-up-for-2013/
It's that time of the new year to reflect and look for ways to keep improving the OpenStack docs. Here's a list of major events from 2013 in OpenStack doc-land. Anne Gentle looks at the past year in review.
