I am seeking re-election as Documentation PTL for Mitaka.
|
|
|
|
I had a great time as incoming PTL for Liberty, and would love another term,
|
|
if you'll have me.
|
|
|
|
Liberty was a great release for documentation. Our main achievement was
|
|
converting four more books to RST, with the Install Guide happening almost
|
|
completely over a 48 hour period. This has had some great feedback from the
|
|
community, with a lot of developers who haven't contributed to documentation
|
|
before now doing so. For Mitaka, I would like to continue the RST conversion,
|
|
with plans to migrate the Operations and Architecture Guides next.
|
|
|
|
One of the things I wanted to focus on during the Liberty cycle was the
|
|
information architecture of our books, to ensure we're delivering content that
|
|
our readers can really use. To this end, I'm happy to report that we completed
|
|
an overhaul of the User Guides during the Liberty Release,. We also made some
|
|
significant changes to the Installation Guide, including changing the way we
|
|
document networking scenarios, one of the trickiest parts of the installation.
|
|
|
|
Since the Kilo release in April, the documentation team has released fixes for
|
|
493 bugs. We've also focused on squashing some old bugs. Through a concerted
|
|
effort we've managed to kill all bugs older than a year (with a few wishlist
|
|
exceptions), and closed a lot of the year old ones. I've also been working
|
|
with Foundation on an organised effort to continue this process of paying down
|
|
technical debt and improve on the work we've done through Liberty. I'll be
|
|
making some exciting announcements about this at Summit.
|
|
|
|
I was very excited to meet so many of the documentation team in Vancouver,
|
|
and had the privilege of welcoming a couple of new Docs ATCs during the
|
|
Summit. I can't wait to see you all again in Tokyo, and hope to meet some new
|
|
faces there.
|
|
|
|
I'd love to have your support for the PTL role for Mitaka, and I'm looking
|
|
forward to continuing to grow the documentation team.
