Public bug reported: As a newcomer to cloud-init, the module documentation has been extremely helpful in laying out the options I can utilize. However, I often have to ask myself if i need to do something as a runcmd script rather than utilize a module, since the documentation doesn't clarify what boot stage (or stages as I've come to find out) a particular module is executed in.
Proposal: Right after the summary of each module in the documentation, add a "Boot stages:" section. I think this will also help reinforce the concept of the 5 boot stages of cloud-init to newcomers, and that will indirectly make it easier to entice new contributors. ** Affects: cloud-init Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: docs -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
