Meeting will be dedicated this topic. Kenny Paulto invite  Brandon Wick and Amar Kapadia

Sofia Wallin asked who owns the resources and the workforce/project

Suggestions by the doc project based on community feedback and the work done by the doc project:

  • Need to ensure that this is not a general bucket where people think they can just throw all doc issues at the writer.
  • API documentation not included in SOW
  • Modeling team has provided the "how to document APIs" 


  • Topic based documentation 
    • Re-structure current content to improve usability. Helping end users and other interested to easy find what they are looking for
  • Review with the team next week what's available today and based on that come up with a work plan
  • Is this content creation only or also clean-up? Adding more content or structure clean up ?


  • SOW
    • Review of existing documentation - lots of content wiki RTD 
    • 6 month SOW proposed
  • Proposed topics
  • I think the work matches the proposed team size quite well.
    • We can have 0.5 person on basics,
    • 1.5 persons on deep dive,
    • 1 person on the ops stuff (install, upgrade; backup, restore).
    • documentation,exercise. not debug+documentation, or development+debug+documentation
  •  Prioritization
    • 1 Walkthrough the basics (high-level architecture, short description of each component)
      • "core implementation bundle" description
    • 2 Deep dive tutorials of the more mature components priorities:
      • how to use SDC - design time is important, gaps in control-loop, known resource limitations on the project.  May have some legacy docs that ncan be leveraged and updated, 
      • how to use DCAE - required for design time 
    • 3 Installation & upgrade procedure
      • E2E from download, install, create and 1st service instance up and running (hello world)
        • "core implementation bundle" description
      • E2E how to upgrade: OOM guides exist but can be improved 
    • 4 Backup, upgrade and restore procedure
      • common guideline for the ONAP platform
      • component specific admin guide 
      • trying out recipes and documenting them as opposed to having to figure them out from scratch or to debug them
    • 5 how to use SO

  1. quick note on feedback from the TSC meeting: TSC 2020-04-02

    •  #3 Installation & upgrade procedure should be top #1 priority
    •  #1 Walkthrough the basics (high-level architecture, short description of each component) is currently covered by the Architecture subcommittee - so can be decoped from SOW or being shifted to #5
