thanks Emilien,

I added a couple of comments in the doc related to two topics which I
think have been half-baked in past releases and could be reviewed with
the removal of mistral, specifically:

- TripleO invocation environment files should not be order dependent
- Performing a stack update should not require all original environment
files

not sure if people familiar with workflows would be interested in
helping with these two?
