Thank you Jessica and Wido for triggering a conversation on CloudStack documentation.
I would like to add to what Jessica was discussing here. We, documentation team, are inviting potential documentation contributors from the community. What we are looking for is a couple of documentation enthusiasts who can diligently review our documentation for the Apache CloudStack project. We can completely make use of the IRC facility for any discussions around documentation reviews. Probably, we can also plan regular Apache documentation project meeting over IRC. What we can offer you back is a byline (credit line) for your contributions and a solid documentation for Apache CloudStack Documentation. Let's hear your voice...

I suppose the fact that it will differ from the Citrix commercial version was a "red herring" which distracted from the point of the note. Sorry about that. Jessica T.

The Apache project will only focus on the Open Source version where the "commercial" version with separate documentation is something that is up to Citrix, am I right? Or did I read this e-mail wrong?
