Hi Akihiro,

Judging by most of the bugs we see in the openstack-manuals queue, the bugs 
that will be raised in projects' own queues will usually be against their own 
developer documentation. In the rare instance that that isn't the case, and it 
needs to come into one of the openstack-manuals docs, then we are happy to 
discuss the issue with the person who raised the bug and, possibly, take the 
bug in our queue to be fixed.

To be clear: just because DocImpact raises a bug in a projects' queue, doesn't 
mean docs aren't available to help fix it. We're always here for you to ask 
questions about docs bugs, even if those bugs are in your repo and your 
developer documentation.

I hope that answers the question.

Thanks,
Lana
