OpenStack Grizzly documentation released <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-announce/2013-May/000097.html> We have released a version of the OpenStack official documentation for grizzly and it is now available at http://docs.openstack.org/grizzly. We continue to update docs through our continuous publishing process so feedback is always welcome. If you have questions about how OpenStack documentation is maintained or would like to get involved, see http://wiki.openstack.org/Documentation/HowTo. We had nearly 80 contributors to the documentation for the Grizzly release. Thanks to everyone who helped create and maintain accurate information for OpenStack. Guidelines for answering question on Ask <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/community/2013-May/000252.html> It’s time we start collecting guidelines for the moderators so we keep having a very informative tool, with consistently good questions and answers. This wiki page hosts the draft of the Guidelines for Moderators https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Community/AskModerators. Comments welcome before they’re moved to their natural home on Ask OpenStack. Discussions at Breakfast with the Board – OpenStack April 2013 Summit <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/05/discussions-at-breakfast-with-the-board-openstack-april-2013-summit/> The summary written by OpenStack Foundation’s Board of Directors of the things discussed during the Breakfast with the Bard in Portland, ranging from marketing to wifi, transparency to elections to what makes a contribution. A must read. Use existing RBD images and put it into Glance <http://sebastien-han.fr/blog/2013/05/07/use-existing-rbd-images-and-put-it-into-glance/> What if Glance, the OpenStack Image Service, was capable of converting images within its store, say from QCOW2 image to a RAW? Waiting for this capability to be added, Sébastien Han <http://sebastien-han.fr/> plays with a scenario where you have a KVM cluster backed by a Ceph Cluster and your CTO wants you to migrate the whole environment to OpenStack. Science fiction in action.
