Puppet Openstack Specifications

This git repository is used to hold approved design specifications for additions to the Puppet modules for Openstack projects. 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 a template spec in specs/template.rst.

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.

Prior to the Juno development cycle, this repository was not used for spec reviews. However, backporting proposals to Icehouse may be made here.

Please note, Launchpad blueprints are still used for tracking the current status of blueprints. For more information, see:
