Open Stack

Thanks Jay and Matt for sharing advice on the upgrade. I have found
the following documentation for each of the projects, I believe I
should also read the upgrade section in each projects release notes.

Can you please advice if the service DB upgrade order as below makes
sense, not sure what to do with the rabbitmq service?

I was looking for something more guided step by step upgrade, and
found these two links. Please share if you've seen any useful upgrade
posts covering Liberty->Mitaka;   Mitaka->Newton. thx will
