* Explain these docs are for trunk (copied from ironic) * All the docs in this repo are meant to be developer docs, so having a devref inside of the docs is redundant and just makes the docs more complicated to navigate. Move everything out of the devref folder and link to everything from main index. * Move man pages into separate section. The man pages are pretty sparse * right now, we should either make them useful or just delete them * Remove dead docs from unused_docs list in doc/source/conf.py * Shuffle docs landing page, move common referees to the top (API, hypervisor support matrix), Add a introduction section and more. The hope is the updated layout makes this document easier to navigate. * Use maxdepth of 1 * Rename a few sections with what are hopefully better names The next step is to prune out outdated documents and further cleanup this page.

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:
Developers wishing to work on the OpenStack Nova project should always base their work on the latest Nova code, available from the master GIT repository at:
