-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi everyone, I'm very pleased to announce that we finally have a name for our M release: Mitaka (三鷹)! Accordingly, the Tokyo Summit for the Mitaka release is only just over 100 days away. CFP closed a couple of days ago, and I've noticed that the first round of ATC discount codes have gone out. If you haven't got yours yet, then keep patching Liberty and sit tight. The discount codes will come out in stages after every snapshot. This week, we've had some great discussions about networking scenarios in the Install Guide, and the best way to include RST files in our newly converted books. We also have both the HA Guide and the Cloud Admin Guide conversions in their final stages, and the Install Guide conversion sprint coming up. Very exciting! == Progress towards Liberty == * RST conversion: ** Install Guide: Conversion is now underway, sign up here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/Migrate#Installation_Guide_Mig... ** Cloud Admin Guide: is nearly done. Sign up here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/Migrate#Cloud_Admin_Guide_Migr... ** HA Guide: is also nearly done. Get in touch with Meg or Matt: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/HA_Guide_Update ** Security Guide: Spec has merged. Planning is happening here: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/sec-guide-rst * User Guides information architecture overhaul ** Waiting on the RST conversion of the Cloud Admin Guide to be complete * Greater focus on helping out devs with docs in their repo ** Work has stalled on the Ironic docs, we need to pick this up again. Contact me if you want to know more, or are willing to help out. * Improve how we communicate with and support our corporate contributors ** I have been brainstorming ideas with Foundation, watch this space! * Improve communication with Docs Liaisons ** I'm very pleased to see liaisons getting more involved in our bugs and reviews. Keep up the good work! * Clearing out old bugs ** A small amount of progress on the old bugs we held over from last week. New ones to check out in this newsletter! == RST Migration == The next books we are focusing on for RST conversion are the Install Guide, Cloud Admin Guide, HA Guide, and the Security Guide. If you would like to assist, please get in touch with the appropriate speciality team: * Install Guide: ** Contact Karin Levenstein <karin.levenstein@rackspace.com> ** Sign up here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/Migrate#Installation_Guide_Mig... ** There's a sprint happening on this book later next week.

Our lovely team of cores will be keeping an eye out to make sure loose changes to XML don't pass the gate, but try to help them out by pointing out both patches in your reviews. == Install Guide RST Conversion Sprint == In order to kick off the RST conversion of the Install Guide, the speciality team have decided to run a virtual conversion sprint over two days on July 22-24. For more information, see the https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/VirtualSprints#Installation_guide_conversion... wiki page, and the https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/installguide-rst-virtual-sprint etherpad. == HA Guide Works == With the RST conversion on the HA Guide wrapping up, the HA Guide speciality team are looking for people to help out with the reorganisation and writing the new content. They have quite a few bugs to get through, and they need your help! Contact Matt Griffin, or any other member of the HA Guide Speciality Team, or join their weekly IRC meeting. Details here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/HA_Guide_Update == Docs Tools == Last week, we released openstackdocstheme 1.1.0, see http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-announce/2015-June/000392.htm....
