Sean, I assume you realize that by standing up and saying this you become
the first volunteer to do the work, right? ;)
Seriously, I wouldn't be against something like this and in fact would
rather like to refresh the HTML docs. Now that devstack.org is generated
on each commit again (thanks anteaya!) we have the ability to do so.
Questions that come to mind for further discussion:
* Is there a 'good enough' reason to do something new that is different
from the rest of docs.openstack.org? Bringing in the legacy site is one
thing, we should have a good reason for adding yet another new build
dependency.
* I'm interested in the opinions of the readership if the shocco-generated
script pages are useful. One of the reasons DevStack is in shell script is
to make it readable by everyone and the literate-style formatting is to
help with that.
