Amy,

The top level page for projects is referenced under documentation from
here:  https://docs.openstack.org/queens/projects.html

So, I think we have that one covered for people who are just looking for
the top level documentation.
Yes, we have that covered. Just to clarify this a bit further, we also have
project lists like https://docs.openstack.org/queens/install/,
https://docs.openstack.org/queens/admin/ and
https://docs.openstack.org/queens/configuration/, what's missing is
https://docs.openstack.org/queens/contributor/.

Cheers,

Petr,

Do we need a contributor link per-release?  I thought in past discussions that the contributor info should always go to latest and that was why this is slightly different.

I think if we're going to have that go to the development contributors
section (which makes sense) maybe we should also have ways of getting
to the deployment and admin docs as well?

             Good overview.  Thank you!

             One additional goal I want to mention on the list, for
             awareness, is the
             fact that we would like to eventually get some consistency
             to the pages
             that the 'Contributor Guide' lands on for each of the
             projects.  Needs
             to be a page that is friendly to new contributors, makes
             it easy to
             learn about the project and is not overwhelming.

             What exactly that looks like isn't defined yet but I have
             talked to
             Manila about this.  They were interested in working
             together on this.
             Cinder and Manila will work together to get something
             consistent put
             together and then we can work on spreading that to other
             projects once
             we have agreement from the SIG that the approach is agreeable.

         This is a good cross-project goal, I think. We discussed a
         similar approach
         in the docs room wrt providing templates to project teams that
         they can
         use to design their landing pages for admin, user,
         configuration docs; that
         would also include the main index page for project docs.

         As for the project-specific contributor guides,
         https://docs.openstack.org/doc-contrib-guide/project-guides.html
         <https://docs.openstack.org/doc-contrib-guide/project-guides.html>
         specifies
         that any contributor content should go to
         doc/source/contributor/. This will
         allow us to use templates to generate lists of links,
         similarly to what
         we do for other content areas.

         Cheers,
         pk

     Petr,

     Good point.  I was trying to think of how to make a better landing
     page for new contributors and you may have hit on the answer.
     RIght now when you click through from  here:
     https://www.openstack.org/community
     <https://www.openstack.org/community> You land at the top level
     Cinder documentation page which is incredibly overwhelming for a
     new person: https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest/
     <https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest/>

     If the new contributor page instead lands here:
     https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest/contributor/index.html
     <https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest/contributor/index.html>
     It would give me a page to craft for new users looking for
     information to get started.

     Thoughts on this approach?

     Kendall and Mike ... Does the above approach make sense?

     Jay
