Subject: [release] migration of user/developer guide to reST in boron
To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]>, ODL
Docs <[email protected]>


tl;dr
The documentation team is planning to automatically migrate projects'
documentation from AsciiDoc to reStructuredText. Expect a patch for you to
review sometime in the next week or so. If you'd like to see it sooner
and/or opt-out, let us know.

As part of our work in Boron, the documentation team has been working on
how to migrate our documentation from AsciiDoc/AsciiDoctor/maven sites to
reStructuredText/Sphinx/read the docs. The most tangible results of our
efforts is this:
http://docs.opendaylight.org/

There's information about the migration here:
http://docs.opendaylight.org/en/latest/documentation.html
https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Documentation/Tools/reStructuredText

We did a TWS on the migration on Monday. You can find the WebEx recording
under the August 8th, 2016 meeting here:
https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Tech_Work_Stream:Main#
Information_From_Past_Meetings

The biggest take-away we showed was that we can do automatic migration from
the current AsciiDoc to reStructuredText using a combination of our current
build tools, pandoc and a script from Xinghao (the documentation intern).
The script is here:
https://github.com/opendaylight/docs/blob/master/makeRST.sh

Our plan is to create one patch per project that migrates the existing
documentation to reST and replaces the AsciiDoc with a pointer to the
appropriate URL to see the new reST-based hosted HTML documentation. For
patches under-review, we will either convert them or hold-off converting
the existing documentation until they've been merged. If you'd like to see
it sooner and/or opt-out, let us know.

Cheers,
--Colin
