Would it help  if doc bugs were associated with the relevant OpenStack project, in addition to the openstack-manauls project? For example, we could mark nova-related doc bugs as "nova" project bugs in addition to "openstack-manuals" project bugs.

This would make outstanding doc issues more visible to the relevant devs, and would reinforce the idea that missing/incorrect documentation in, say, nova should be viewed as a *nova* issue and not simply a *documentation* issue. In particular, it could generate more doc-focused effort when it comes time for the pre-release bug squashing activities, since devs will be encouraged to squash those bugs in their project.

Take care,

Lorin
