Re: Quantum Integration Part 3

 

Hi Alan,

That's a good question.  I had assumed that my recent commits to
https://www.github.com/openstack/openstack-manuals would
automatically propagate to
http://docs.openstack.org/incubation/openstack-network/admin/content/index.html,
but that doesn't seem to have happened for the latest commits.

Anne Gentle, can you help out here?  Thanks!

Dan
