Leong, this is all good, thank you. However, it does not address the back end to get them published and promoted to the intended audience - prospective OpenStack user architects for their PoCs.
I suggested using Docs (docs.openstack.org) as a place to show them on OpenStack.org. And use the Docs process for reviews by community writers. Once they are complete, I can write up the page needed for openstack.org/software/sample-configs and link to the doc in the respoitory or docs.openstack.org. We'd still need a place to store the Heat templates too.
And, the teams developing these should use a consistent design for all graphics. In a little while, we hope to provide a set of images for servers, disks, network storage, routers, etc., so the team can use them to put together their diagrams.
I'm asking to please take this one step further and provide for outside (of the creation team) review of the created docs for language, provide consistent graphics, and consider placement and promotion options in your plan. Than you.

In the last Enterprise WG meeting, I proposed to move the development of workload reference architecture into OpenStack github and review system/process.
Most agreed and support this approach. I just want to bring this up to this maillist in case of anyone who missed the last meeting.
As most are aware, in the previous Newton cycle, we have published two Workload Reference Architecture (Web Application & Big Data) which are now available at https://www.openstack.org/software/sample-configs. (eCommerce is in the final stage of publication).
With this, we can:
1. Create a more scalable process for on-going enhancement/development/creation of existing or new workload reference architecture (e.g. container, media transcoding, enterprise database, PaaS, etc).
2. Reach out to wider community and encourage more people to contribute.
3. Mitigate EWG resources bottleneck on developing workload reference architecture.
4. Allow parallel development of multiple reference architectures at any release cycle.
5. Embrace OpenStack 4 Open principles.
To achieve this, few things needs to be done:
1. Create a github repo to host EWG Workload Reference Architecture. (I have submitted the github request)
2. Develop a common template or format for the content writing. (pending)
3. Decide a directory structure for hosting each individual workload reference architecture (documents, diagram, sample code such as heat or murano), potentially with multiple "version" or "release". (pending)
4. Form initial team of core-reviewer for this repo to validate/approve content. (pending)
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks!
