Thanks Chmouel for reviewing. I am reviewing (and patching as needed) also.

Adrian, the API will not version upwards until the API itself is
redesigned, so the doc will remain an API 1.0 document.

Generally speaking, the documents stored in object-api, compute-api,
identity-api, netconn-api and image-api repos will document the code
that's in a core project. Changes in them need to be approved by core
members of the corresponding project, and doc-core can also approve
small changes to get them published.

Thanks,

Anne
