I applaud Julien's note and we're happy to work with the teams on finding where docs should go. Julien's feeling very behind, and I'm sure other projects are feeling the same.
We all have to set priorities. Here's where I'd start. Log doc bugs in openstack-manuals for: installation configuration day-to-day running end-user tasks admin tasks troubleshooting Log doc bugs in openstack-api-site for: API reference docs Ensure your configuration information is updated as it is now being scraped with a script to go into the Config Ref. Assign knowledgeable team members to the doc bugs. Come to #openstack-doc on IRC to ask which files to update. Recruit writers and reviewers. Go go go!
