Our scope covers long term changes, when new services appear in the OpenStack big tent community.

*RST issues in converting tables when tables are codeblocks.
+
APAC Meeting
**RST documents impose a 79 character limit when building files in .rst format. When tables exceed that limit, a list table role can help create content in a new table without exceeding the character limit. The issue is when a table is generated by an OpenStack service, and returned as a result of a command. These tables are constructed with +, -, and | characters. The table created by a list table role has solid lines forming rows, columns, and cells. The content is similar, however users might be surprised by a table with solid lines rather than a table built with +, -, and | characters. Is there a role or other filter than can be applied to list tables to make them appear as a table that might turn up in code block (+--------+)?

*Large scale content inside tables.

*Minutes (text): http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/meetings/docuserguides/2016/docuserguides.2016-06-01-23.30.txt
**When building tables with a list table role, some items that appear inside the table cells might exceed the 79 character limit. Is there a solution to recreating this large scale content in a table such that it does not affect the character limit?

*The :orphan: role and references.
 
**Files with an :orphan: role at the top of the file, not included in the toc tree, will not link to another file when the :ref: role is used to link to the file from a different file. Is there a solution to this linking issue?
 
*Pandoc conversion problems.
 
**When converting files with Pandoc, some entries in the .xml file will not convert accurately. Procedure titles and sub section titles will not parse correctly, and will be deleted from the converted document. Pandoc also removes procedure numbering. Currently, the solution is to compare the complete .rst file to the built .xml version, and check the headings, subheadings, and procedure numbers to make sure they are correct, and line up with original. This is an issue that could also be discussed.
