This reorganizes the developer's main page by adding a 'Commands and API References' section at the same level as the sections for Administrator's & Developer's guides. It also removes subsections like 'Introduction' and 'Overview' that didn't make sense any more since they included more than one might expect from such sections.

Ironic
Ironic is an integrated OpenStack project which aims to provision bare metal machines instead of virtual machines, forked from the Nova Baremetal driver. It is best thought of as a bare metal hypervisor API and a set of plugins which interact with the bare metal hypervisors. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI together to provision and turn on/off machines, but Ironic also supports vendor-specific plugins which may implement additional functionality.
