What's typical of open source projects is "let's fork heartbeat so we'll know exactly what pieces we need and how they work because we wrote 'em". Aka "if you want something done right, DIY". I'm sure clusterlabs docs worked someone (at least for the person who wrote them). Ditto for linbit docs, linux-ha docs, howtoforge docs, centos wiki... it's not like there's shortage of docs out there. It's that heartbeat project was split into resource manager and communications layer so we're not supposed to use heartbeat (-3.0.3) anymore, right? We're supposed to use this new hotness available in BumTicker-0.9, OpenAches-1.0, and Coronary-1.1 (choose any 2), depending on which 3-rd party repos you've added to your pacakage manager config. Plus cluster-glue, cluster-libs, glue-libs, cluster-cluster, glue-glue, and libs-libs installed for dependencies in 64 and 32-bit versions. Of course what you end up with doesn't match any documentation out there. It'd be surprising if it did.
