lecris[m]1Besides the abisimal documentation, are there issues? I want a solution to deploy multiple Openstack stacks, e.g. to deploy a testing overcloud before trying to do upgrades04:01
lecris[m]1TripleO seems to be built to do exactly that, but are there other deployments with similar functionality?04:02
lecris[m]1Aren't all of ansible recipes common among all of these?04:08

jrosserlecris[m]1: there is almost certainly an IRC channel specific to tripleo, see https://www.rdoproject.org/tripleo/06:32
lecris[m]1Thanks I got some help there. So this channel is more on the general openstack help? I.e. after any of the deployments?06:34
jrosserbasically yes06:36
jrosserimho you should look also at the other deployment tools aside from tripleo, unless you have a big need to use that specifically06:36
lecris[m]1👍️06:36
jrosseryou have reasonable amount of choices which make different decisions about how they work06:37
jrossersome will be better / worse fit for your needs06:37
lecris[m]1Well I want something that can be daisy-chained, which TripleO in theory is the supported way to do that06:38
jrosseryou mean there is an upgrade path?06:39
lecris[m]1And I am at the very last step of getting it working06:40
lecris[m]1Like `undercloud` -> `overcloud` -> `overcloud-test`/`overcloud-next`/`undercloud...`, and basically just switch them around at next stable etc.06:41

Jan[m]1Hi all! I am looking into contributing to the openstack documentation.... (full message at https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/WpaYUxxxtXZQrLWNZVgzPXfa)10:05
fricklerJan[m]1: using a bridge from matrix makes it pretty difficult for most participants here to read your message. maybe only write one line at a time.10:20
*** rlandy|out is now known as rlandy10:20
Jan[m]1ok, thanks for the hint10:20
Jan[m]1I am looking into contributing to the openstack documentation.10:20
Jan[m]1I found the following guide for first timers:10:20
Jan[m]1https://docs.openstack.org/doc-contrib-guide/quickstart/first-timers.html10:21
Jan[m]1The section on "Finding a bug" sends me to a launchpad (https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-manuals/+bugs)10:21
Jan[m]1The launchpad however returns only the following message:10:21
Jan[m]1openstack-manuals must be configured in order for Launchpad to forward bugs to the project's developers.10:21
Jan[m]1What am I doing wrong?10:21
Jan[m]1How can I find things to contribute?10:21
Jan[m]1Is this the right place to ask questions regarding documentation contributions?10:21
Jan[m]1(Sorry for the flood :)10:21
fricklerI'm not sure about the issue with launchpad, but then, most projects publish their documentation from their own repo nowadays, so documentation bugs will be tracked in their specific bug tracker10:21
frickleralso this is the right channel, but it isn't pretty active. you might also want to visit #openstack-doc , which however is even less active10:22
Jan[m]1Thanks10:23
fricklerJan[m]1: if you do not want to look at specific projects, testing the installation guide and seeing if everything still works as described might be a good start https://docs.openstack.org/install-guide/10:24
Jan[m]1ok, the thing is that the guide mentions that you have to have a story or a bug to contribute10:25
Jan[m]1contributions without any of these is ok too, but having an issue is prefered10:26
Jan[m]1That is why I asked, as I cannot see anyting in the launchpad, it is hard to come up with an issue (and to search for existing issue, etc.)10:27
fricklerJan[m]1: submitting patches without a bug reference is valid, too. worst case some reviewer will ask for a bug to be created.10:41
fricklerJan[m]1: you can also check doc bugs for individual projects. like nova has them tagged https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bugs?field.tag=doc10:41
Jan[m]1Ah, this launchpad works as expected. Ok I think I get it now, some projects track their bugs some place else (e.g. a story board) and some are still on launch pad. Thanks that helped!10:49

lecris[m]1Jan: what documentation part are you targeting? I am starting some work on TripleO deployment.12:02
Jan[m]1Currently I am looking for the issue tracker of openstack-manuals.12:06
Jan[m]1Also I am looking into Ironic, but I found a matching StoryBoard already.12:07
*** soniya is now known as soniya|ruck12:21
lecris[m]1Why are there both launchpad and storyboard? It's confusing to find where/how to contribute. At least the repositories on github point to the relevant infrastructures12:41
Jan[m]1That is not always true. In case of the openstack-manuals: github points to opendev, opendev points to a not configured launchpad.12:42
Jan[m]1Good question, btw. I find it confusing as well.12:43
lecris[m]1Sorry i meant gitea12:45
lecris[m]1The one on opendev12:45
lecris[m]1If it points to unconfigured launchpad it's likely because it should point to the parent project12:47
Jan[m]1Ok, that makes sense, so documentation bugs should be in the overall openstack launchpad.13:10
jamesbensonI find doc bugs in the project that I'm interested in/working on typically13:11
