Move our process document into the reference guide published on the
website so it is easier to provide folks with links to explain the
various stages of the cycle.
Adding the new page also requires fixing up some RST warnings so
Sphinx would run properly, and fixing some markup so the rendered page
looked OK.

Gerrit ACLs need to be periodically checked to spot ACLs
allowing direct tagging or branching on official deliverables.
As discussed at the release meeting, this should be manually run
after each milestone.

Update PROCESS.rst to include instructions in case a given
deliverable saw no change at all during the cycle. In that
case no release is forced, and a stable branch is created
from the last-available release.

Remove steps in the release process around creating
temporary ACLs for new stable branches and switching
Gerrit group contents around release time.
This implements the plan presented and discussed at:

We will need to fix make-dashboard as part of the
validate-with-object-model series of patches, but we do not use it any
more so let's just remove it instead.

Remove step 10 and merge it into step 8 since it all can be done
in a single tempest patch plus one d-g patch.

Update the process documentation about RC1 step 9 with the new
process and a new sample patch.

Call out running the unreleased library report during the cycle to
make sure we are aware and can notify projects with pending library
changes before the end of the cycle.

In the past we have unfrozen the requirements repo before it was ideal
to allow changes. In order to make sure the appropriate people are
handling this, updating the PROCESS doc to note that the requirements
team should be the ones to perform this unfreeze.

The documentation landing page for a series exists as soon as the
series is open, so we can start out the beginning of the cycle with a
releases.o.o page that points to docs.o.o/$series.

After the doc-migration, the release team no longer branches the
openstack-manuals repository. They can also establish the new landing
pages for the soon-to-be-open series earlier, and update the series
status for soon-to-be-released series at the same time.

Update instructions about the aclmanager dance between M-2
and M-3, so that we don't repeat the Pike mistakes.

Relax rules around independent library releases during library freeze
after milestone-3. They may still be released but we'll hold constraint
or requirement changes until after the freeze period.
Change-Id: Idf71f201dc3929ca27789e2a404eb6799c519c5f
In order to reduce no-show risk at library freezes, we'd like to make
sure that we have one library release in the cycle to fall back to.
This is done by asking projects to do at least one library release
before milestone-2. Add corresponding steps to the PROCESS.rst file.

We switched to https for docs.openstack.org, adjust most URLs.
This change updates documentation etc files, but not any deliverable files.

Update the release process document to address the issue we ran into
with Ironic this cycle because we didn't encourage them strongly enough
to branch early enough.

Instead of requiring the series argument, look at the default that the
rest of the scripts use. There is still a command line option for
overriding the default.

The aclmanager script needs to be able to get a list of repositories
with the cycle-with-milestone release model, and the data for that lives
in this repository now instead of the governance repository. Rather than
having a tool that relies on this data live in release-tools, move it
here.

Around the time Gerrit ACL changes are prepared, have Infra generate

its installation at the beginning of the coming development cycle.
