Hi Alain,
We do already have a doc bug for this one, thanks for identifying it as
well. You can subscribe yourself here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-api-site/+bug/1187277
Diane Fleming is a great contributor to the API docs, and is currently
assigned to fix this bug, but if you reach out to her she could also walk
you through how to fix it yourself. The way this page is put together is
written up on my blog at
http://justwriteclick.com/2013/04/14/how-its-made-the-openstack-api-reference-page/so
you could get a deep dive if you like.
Thanks,
Anne
