Brian Rosmaita b6c8778ac1 Add alt text for badges
The RST image directive takes an alt parameter that's used to supply an
alt attribute for the HTML image element that's generated during RST
to HTML conversion.  The alt text is useful for accessibility purposes
and is also displayed if the image source is unavailable when the HTML
is generated.  Because of the latter point, we can't rely on the
accessibility features of the SVG image, we need to maintain some info
here in the README.rst file.

Team and repository tags
========================
.. image:: http://governance.openstack.org/badges/glance-specs.svg
:target: http://governance.openstack.org/reference/tags/index.html
:alt: The following tags have been asserted for the Glance Specifications
repository:
"project:official",
"team:diverse-affiliation".
Follow the link for an explanation of these tags.
.. NOTE(rosmaita): the alt text above will have to be updated when
additional tags are asserted for glance-specs. (The SVG in the
governance repo is updated automatically.)

===============================
OpenStack Glance Specifications
===============================
This git repository is used to hold approved design specifications for additions
to the Glance 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 general layout of this repository is::
specs/<release>/
You can find an example spec in `specs/template.rst`.
Beginning with the Mitaka release, there is a further subdivision into::
specs/<release>/approved
specs/<release>/implemented
A specification is proposed for a given release by adding it to the
`specs/<release>/approved` 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.
When a feature has been completed, its specification will be moved to the
'implemented' directory for the release in which it was 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.
Prior to the Juno development cycle, this repository was not used for spec
reviews. Reviews prior to Juno were completed entirely through Launchpad
blueprints::
http://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance
Please note, Launchpad blueprints are still used for tracking the
current status of blueprints. For more information, see::
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Blueprints
For more information about working with gerrit, see::
http://docs.openstack.org/infra/manual/developers.html#development-workflow
To validate that the specification is syntactically correct (i.e. get more
confidence in the Jenkins result), please execute the following command::
$ tox
After running ``tox``, the documentation will be available for viewing in HTML
format in the ``doc/build/`` directory. Please do not checkin the generated
HTML files as a part of your commit.
