The Struts style guide has more details 
http://struts.apache.org/2.2.3/docs/documentation-style-guide.html and we can 
borrow some tips from there. 

One other thing I think will help users is quick link to Single Page Html.  
This is useful because people often want to search for a specific word or 
phrase across the entire documentation. Generally, they already know what 
they're looking for; they just can't remember what section it's in. 

The separate-page style is useful for those who already know what section they 
need, or who want to read the entire documentation from front to back in 
sequence. But this is not the most common way documentation is accessed.

Thanks
Animesh

Subject: [Discuss] Style Guide for Apache CloudStack Documentation ?

Hello Community,

Any thoughts on the need of a style guide for the CloudStack Documentation ?

First of all, do we need one-If yes, do we need to create afresh , or follow 
the existing style guides within Apache projects, such as Maven. Here is the 
link: http://maven.apache.org/guides/development/guide-documentation-style.html.

Please educate me on the Apache way for Documentation style.

Alternatively, we can always follow what XenServer documentation is following.

Thanks
-Radhika

PS: I do understand that enhancing the documentation/ fixing the doc defect is 
the first priority of the doc contributors.
