Some more general documentation has been started here:
https://review.openstack.org/#change,5419

The devstack scripts are written in bash and include example
configurations within them so that you can make your own custom setups
and scripts based on them.

There are also chef recipes for working with XenServer here:
https://github.com/openstack/openstack-chef/tree/master/cookbooks/xenserver

If you look carefully at the individual devstack scripts there are
techniques to build stage files, build XVA files, etc.

The documentation linked from http://wiki.openstack.org/XenServer is
still work in progress, but is written by the actual developers that
are making all of this work. The latest devstack scripts are being
used and tested by these developers as well.

The compute manual, devstack, chef scripts, etc. will evolve over time
to include more details and even more information, but as things are
built up, you should just ask if you don't understand something so
that we can explain and then include more in the documentation.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,
Todd
