What Up, Doc? 11 September, 2015
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi everyone, Things are really starting to heat up now! Summit preparations are well underway, PTL elections just opened, and testing is proceeding apace on the Install Guide. As well as preparing my candidacy for Mitaka Docs PTL, I've been continuing to sort out the outstanding blueprints, and also planning for some announcements in Tokyo. One of the interesting things I learned while compiling a list of Liberty achievements is that we have released fixes for nearly 500 bugs since Kilo was released. What an amazing achievement! == Progress towards Liberty == 33 days to go 496 bugs closed so far. * RST conversion: ** Done. * User Guides information architecture overhaul ** This is now well underway. * Greater focus on helping out devs with docs in their repo ** A certain amount of progress has been made here, and some wrinkles sorted out which will improve this process for the future. * Improve how we communicate with and support our corporate contributors ** I'm still trying to come up with great ideas for this, please let me know what you think. * 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 ** We've had some solid progress on last week's bugs, with two assigned, and one of those in progress. Three new bugs this week. == Mitaka Summit Prep == The schedule has now been released, congratulations to everyone who had a talk accepted this time around: https://www.openstack.org/summit/tokyo-2015/schedule/ All ATCs should have received their pass by now, so now is the time to be booking your travel and accommodation: https://www.openstack.org/summit/tokyo-2015/tokyo-and-travel/ Docs have been given their design summit session allocation, so start thinking about what you would like to see discussed. I'll send out an etherpad to start planning in the next week or two. == Conventions == A new governance patch has landed which changes the way we capitalise service names (I know almost exactly 50% of you will be happy about this!): https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/Conventions#Service_and_pr oject_names Please be aware of this when editing files, and remember that the 'source of truth' for these things is the projects.yaml file: http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/governance/tree/reference/projec ts.yaml == Doc team meeting == The US meeting was held this week. The minutes are here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/MeetingLogs#2015-09-09 The next meetings are: APAC: Wednesday 16 September, 00:30:00 UTC US: Wednesday 23 September, 14:00:00 UTC Please go ahead and add any agenda items to the meeting page here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/DocTeamMeeting#Agenda_for_next_ meeting == Spotlight bugs for this week == Let's show these three how much we care: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-manuals/+bug/1284301 Document Neutron SSL-VPN for cloudadmin https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-manuals/+bug/1288044 Add user defined extra capabilities https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-manuals/+bug/1292327 Make cors work better - -- Remember, if you have content you would like to add to this newsletter, or you would like to be added to the distribution list, please email me directly at openstack@lanabrindley.com, or visit: https://wiki.openstack.org/w/index.php?title=Documentation/WhatsUpDoc Keep on doc'ing!
