The current README still mentions EC2 and over-duplicates information that now lives in other files, like CONTRIBUTING.rst. This patch re-focused the README on three key groups of folks: * API users * Operators * Developers Change-Id: I9df445ca0c800f0985900dcb00466c15e8d5570f

Operators
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
To learn how to deploy and configure OpenStack Nova, consult the
|
|
documentation available online at:
|
|
|
|
http://docs.openstack.org
|
|
|
|
For information about the different compute (hypervisor) drivers
|
|
supported by Nova, please read:

|
http://docs.openstack.org/developer/nova/feature_classification.html
|
|
|
|
In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should
|
|
be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained
|
|
the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is
|
|
often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems.
|
|
In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker,
|
|
available at:
|
|
