We definitely want you to include pointers to vendor documentation in the
OpenStack docs, but I'd prefer make sure they're gate tested before they
get listed on docs.openstack.org. Drivers change enough release-to-release
that it's difficult to keep up maintenance.

Lately I've been talking to driver contributors (hypervisor, storage,
networking) about the out-of-tree changes possible. I'd like to encourage
even out-of-tree drivers to get listed, but to store their main documents
outside of docs.openstack.org, if they are gate-tested.

Anyone have other ideas here?

Looping in the OpenStack-docs mailing list also.
