-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi everyone, This has been a fairly busy week, with Summit preparations beginning, more newly migrated RST books going live, and testing starting on the Install Guide. I've been spending time on sorting out the Liberty blueprints still outstanding, and also working on some old bugs. == Progress towards Liberty == 40 days to go! * RST conversion: ** Is now completed! Well done and a huge thank you to everyone who converted pages, approved reviews, and participated in publishing the new guides. This was a truly phenomenal effort :) * User Guides information architecture overhaul ** Some user analysis has begun, and we have a new blueprint: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/openstack-manuals/+spec/user-guides-reo rganised * 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 ** If you currently work on documentation for a company that would like to improve their upstream commits for documentation, please contact me! * 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 ** The last lot of old bugs are still languishing. I'm assuming you all hate them so very much that I've decided to give you three more to pick from. Have at it! == Countdown to Summit == With the Liberty release less than two months away, that means it's nearly Summit time again: https://www.openstack.org/summit/tokyo-2015/ 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/ == 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 == Docs Tools == openstack-doc-tools 0.30.0 and openstackdocstheme 1.2.1 have been released. openstack-doc-tools allows translation of the Install Guide. openstackdocstheme contains fixes for the inclusion of metatags, removes unused images and javascript files, and fixes the "Docs Home" link. == Doc team meeting == The APAC meeting was not held this week.
