Document what APIs nova considers to be public contracts, anything not
in this list should be considered a private API.
Clarify the 'API' section to make sure its clear we are talking about
the REST API.

The syntax suggested for adding hooks to nova via setup.py entrypoints is:
entry_points = {
'nova.hooks': [
'resize_hook': your_package.hooks.YourHookClass,
]
},
But this is incorrect. The proper syntax for an entry_points entry is:
entry_points = {
'nova.hooks': [
'resize_hook=your_package.hooks:YourHookClass',
]
},

At the nova mid-cycle we agreed that while specs have made our blueprint
process significantly better, we think the current approach still leaves
much to be desired. This document is the outcome of the discussion at
the mid-cycle on how we want to manage blueprints in Kilo.
This proposal is being placed in devref, as we want to use gerrit's
workflow (two core reviews, inline comments, revisions etc) and this is
a document for developers.
Introduce the idea of project priorities.

This patch adds the basic NUMA filter that will take the proposed
instance topology and try to match it against that of a host.
The matching will be done in the following manner:
* Filter will try to match the exact NUMA cells of the instance to those
of the host. It *will not* attempt to pack the instance onto the host.
* It will consider the standard over-subscription limits for each cell,
and provide limits to the compute host accordingly.
* If instance has no topology defined, it will be considered for any host.
* If instance has a topology defined, it will be considered only for NUMA
capable hosts.

It turns out adding the specs requirement to blueprints adds a
non-trivial amount of overhead, revisit when a blueprint and spec is
needed to minimize overhead in cases where it isn't helpful.

For some time, we've been informally implementing a "revert early"
policy around handling -2 worthy complaints after a patch has been
merged. These reverts can be contentious, so it's appropriate we make
it very clear what the policy and procedure here is in order to lessen
the contentiousness of these reverts.

Commit a507d42cf5 makes the
doc builds fail on warnings, so people are probably going
to be running 'tox -e docs' more often. To run that you
need the graphviz package from the distro, so add it to

environment.

This patch clarifies the document structure of
doc/source/devref/development.environment.rst and adds a section about
how to build the documentation. This patch also strips out the
redundant information in doc/README.rst, replacing it with a reference
to doc/source/devref/development.environment.rst.

There is currently a misconception about how a patch gets merged:
Author proposes a patch, review team reviews it. Us, and Them. Instead
it should be a 'We.'
If the review bandwidth doesn't grow at the same rate as the patch
proposal rate then we end up with a massive backlog where people are
pinging cores for reviews.
Record a recommended policy of asking patch authors to offset the review
resources spent on their patch by reviewing other patches.

devref already contains a list of all modules, so no need to explicitly
include files that just contain lists of modules under the section 'Module
Reference'. Most of the deleted files are very outdated and refer to
non-existent modules anyway.
Leave services for now as it contains some content
that should be preserved. A later patch will clean those files up.

Right now it is possible to pause, suspend and stop a VM in state RESCUED,
so after the state is changed, it's not possible to trigger unrescue anymore
since the original state is lost.
This patch remove vm_states.RESCUED as valid state from stop,
pause and suspend actions.
The vm_states devref is also updated to reflect this change including the
current reboot flow.( vm_states.RESCUED cannot be rebooted as per
today code)
