enabling OpenStack project teams to produce consistent, accurate, and
high-quality documentation.
- The docs team provides guidance, assistance, tooling, and style guides
- Shifting opinions towards starting from scratch- looking at what the docs team actually does/makes before crafting words around it [19]
- Discussion will likely continue at the PTG
- Thierry proposed [18]:
- Microversion Parse Growth [20]
- cdent has a patch that has started cleaning up and shifting miroversion related functions out of the placement serves and into a microversion-parse library [21]
- Still more work to be done- decorators that handle multiple callables of the same name based on microversion, utility method to raise a status code response based microversion match, etc
- cdent would like opinions on how to proceed
- Custom Resource Classes, Bare Metal Scheduling and You [22]
- If you run a 3rd party CI– this is important
- In Pike, Nova provides a new way of scheduling baremetal based on custom resource classes
- The old way is now deprecated but will be UNAVAILABLE in Queens
- All operators running ironic will have to set the resource class field before upgrading to Pike and change flavors before upgrading to Queens
- The ironic virt driver in Nova is going to be automatically migrating the embedded flavor within existing instances in Pike [23]
- A periodic task in the nova-compute service
will automatically create any custom resource class from an ironic node
in the Placement service if it does not already exist
- Install Guide Testing [25]
- Docs team needs volunteers to test and verify the installation instructions [26]
- If you find things that need work, add them here [27]
- Teams in particular that should take note:

- Keystone
- Horizon
- Neutron
- Nova
- Glance
