Summary

Restructure the documentation for greatest effectiveness.

Rationale

The original documentation layout for OpenStack was designed a couple of years ago. We have created a lot of documentation, and learnt much about how our various users interact with it. We now also have a new book: the OpenStack Operations Guide.


Design

The restructure considers 4 main documents. Each document may have other supporting documents, such as the "High Availability Guide", which supports both the Install Guide and the Operations Guide.

- Install Guide Operations Guide Reference Manual API Reference
Purpose Provide step-by-step instructions that allow result in an deployed OpenStack Cluster Provide opinionated direction on the design and operations of OpenStack clusters The definitive list of options able to be used with OpenStack The definitive list of API methods and parameters, with examples for each.
