One approach comes to mind. For the Infrastructure User Manual [1] to come
to life, which has a similar readership, they held a quick "sprint" with
remote work done over IRC and a repo at openstack-infra/infra-manual. [2]
You'll need to recruit a group of reviewers who can review new content as
it comes in. I'd also recommend starting with an outline and assigning
people to certain topics (especially if they've got notes already written).

I'd imagine the outline something like this:

Setting up an OpenStack development environment
-- Considerations for using DevStack
-- Considerations for using system packages
-- Understanding the architecture and components
-- Building the documentation
-- Running unit tests
-- When to use fakes
-- Internal API references
-- REST API references
-- Debugging locally
-- Debugging within continuous integration gate
Configuring a development environment for individual projects
-- 

Hope this helps -
Anne

Since no one has expressed distaste for this idea. What’s the best way to
move forward? I genuinely have no idea what the right next step is and
would appreciate some guidance here.

+2  This topic had come up in Cinder I believe as well.

Having a common devref for common content would be good and would make it
easier to keep the documentation current.

Hey all,

First, let me provide some context. The week before last, an update
to sqlalchemy-migrate broke glance’s gate. While helping us fix the
problem, Matt Riedemann noticed that the project doesn’t have a
Developer Reference document. The document helps new developers
determine what system packages they need to build a development
environment for the project.

We discussed the idea of putting one together for glance at the team
meeting last week. While discussing it, we realized a lot of the
steps are similar to Nova’s and it might benefit OpenStack as a whole
to have one common DevRef that links off to individual ones for
further configuration. The list of common steps could be maintained
in one place (rather than synchronized between projects) and then
individual extensions would be maintained with in each project or
wiki.

Before we started duplicating content in our own document, we wanted
to present the idea to the cross-project team and the community as a
whole.

Feedback is greatly appreciated, Ian


I think a common shared developer reference is a great idea, Ian. ++
