Hello to the Docs Team,

I’m sending an email out for two reasons: a patch for the Horizon section of the install guide, and an introduction.

The introduction is short: I'm Joe, I’ve been making contributions to OpenStack Docs for a few months, but I have not introduced myself yet. So hello all, and good too meet you.

Now onto the patch. I added a new section to the Horizon part of the install guide, and received two good comments about where the contents under the new section title belong:

https://review.openstack.org/#/c/103474/

The TL:DR: the horizon content about dashboard customisation and storage sessions needs to move to the end of the Horizon install. Content also needs to be checked against the administrator guide.

I checked the install guide against the admin guide and found they have replicated content.

“Set up session storage for the dashboard” appears in both the install<http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/install-guide/install/apt/content/dashboard-sessions.html> and admin<http://docs.openstack.org/admin-guide-cloud/content/dashboard-sessions.html> guides

My plan is to:
*Remove the duplicated content from the install guide.
*Move any information on customisation and storage sessions from the start, to the end of the Horizon install guide, with links to the admin guide.
*Build up the introductory paragraphs for Horizon with correct information about the dashboard service so it matches the rest of the install guide.

Sorry for the long post. Is the plan for this patch ok?

Best Regards,

Joe Robinson
