Steve Martinelli 98aee9e39a Create 1.0.2 release notes
Also move the release notes to the bottom of the ToC, no need for
it to be at the top, that's prime real estate.

brings the command set for Compute, Identity, Image, Object Store and Volume
APIs together in a single shell with a uniform command structure.

Getting Started
---------------
* Try :doc:`some commands <command-list>`
* Read the source `on OpenStack's Git server`_
* Install OpenStackClient from `PyPi`_ or a `tarball`_
Project Goals
-------------
* Use the OpenStack Python API libraries, extending or replacing them as required
* Use a consistent naming and structure for commands and arguments
* Provide consistent output formats with optional machine parseable formats
* Use a single-binary approach that also contains an embedded shell that can execute
multiple commands on a single authentication (see libvirt's virsh for an example)
* Independence from the OpenStack project names; only API names are referenced (to
the extent possible)
