OpenStack Akanda Specifications
===============================
This directory structure is used to hold approved design specifications for additions
to the Akanda project. Reviews of the specs are done in gerrit, using a
similar workflow to how we review and merge changes to the code itself.
The layout of this repository is::
specs/<release>/
You can find an example spec in `specs/template.rst`. A
skeleton that contains all the sections required for a spec
file is located in `specs/skeleton.rst` and can
be copied, then filled in with the details of a new blueprint for
convenience.
Specifications are proposed for a given release by adding them to the
`specs/<release>` directory and posting it for review. The implementation
status of a blueprint for a given release can be found by looking at the
blueprint in launchpad. Not all approved blueprints will get fully implemented.
Specifications have to be re-proposed for every release. The review may be
quick, but even if something was previously approved, it should be re-reviewed
to make sure it still makes sense as written.
Please note, Launchpad blueprints are still used for tracking the
current status of blueprints. For more information, see::
