Our main achievement was +converting four more books to RST, with the Install Guide happening almost +completely over a 48 hour period. This has had some great feedback from the +community, with a lot of developers who haven't contributed to documentation +before now doing so. For Mitaka, I would like to continue the RST conversion, +with plans to migrate the Operations and Architecture Guides next. + +One of the things I wanted to focus on during the Liberty cycle was the +information architecture of our books, to ensure we're delivering content that +our readers can really use. To this end, I'm happy to report that we completed +an overhaul of the User Guides during the Liberty Release,. We also made some +significant changes to the Installation Guide, including changing the way we +document networking scenarios, one of the trickiest parts of the installation. + +Since the Kilo release in April, the documentation team has released fixes for +493 bugs. We've also focused on squashing some old bugs. Through a concerted +effort we've managed to kill all bugs older than a year (with a few wishlist +exceptions), and closed a lot of the year old ones. I've also been working +with Foundation on an organised effort to continue this process of paying down +technical debt and improve on the work we've done through Liberty. I'll be +making some exciting announcements about this at Summit. + +I was very excited to meet so many of the documentation team in Vancouver, +and had the privilege of welcoming a couple of new Docs ATCs during the +Summit. I can't wait to see you all again in Tokyo, and hope to meet some new +faces there. + +I'd love to have your support for the PTL role for Mitaka, and I'm looking +forward to continuing to grow the documentation team. + +Lana (@Loquacities) \ No newline at end of file
