==================================
Group Based Policy Specifications
==================================
This git repository is used to hold approved design specifications for additions
to the Group Based Policy 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 `doc/source/specs/template.rst`. A
skeleton that contains all the sections required for a spec
file is located in `doc/source/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.
For more information about working with gerrit, see::
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Gerrit_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 check in the generated
HTML files as a part of your commit.
