Bonjour Gauvain,

Un gros bravo pour cette documentation sur Heat qui est très complète.

Est-ce que par hasard vous auriez déjà une version française ? ;)

Best,

F.

We actually have another way to work with developers, although it's been only 
available for the new HOT guide. This guide is temporary, it will become a part 
of the user guide. The interesting point is that it's written in RST, and uses 
gerrit for reviews. So far we've had 2 core members of the heat team 
contributing content, and this content has been reviewed by other members of 
the team.

The devs patches focused on content, not on the form of the content. I 
suggested to accept the patches rapidly - as long as they're technically 
correct - and to rework them later (what I've started to do a couple days ago). 
The fact that we're using gerrit and that the developers review each other work 
makes me more comfortable with the quality of the content.

I'd really like to see this process extended to a larger part of the 
documentation, although this might not be needed everywhere.

I had this workflow in mind:

* a dev sends a review to a temporary repo
* other devs can validate the information, and give their +1 when the patch is 
ready
* a doc reviewer either requests more technical detail, or gives his 
+2/accept
* the doc team reworks the patch and integrates it to the doc repository

I really think that the process worked for the HOT guide, and I'm convinced 
that it could work for other parts of the doc (Cinder and Neutron drivers doc 
for instance).

As a side note, we have a tool that converts RST to docbook. The hot guide is 
automatically built using this tool 
(http://docs.openstack.org/hot-guide/content/hot_guide_hot-guide.html).
