The installation handbooks won't be changed until openrc & baselayout-2 |
| 13 |
are stabilized and shipped with the stage3 tarballs. |

The same goes for our existing documentation. Until the new baselayout & |
| 16 |
openrc are stabilized, made the default, *and* the old stuff is marked |
| 17 |
deprecated, don't expect it to show up in our other documents alongside |
| 18 |
baselayout-1 content. The last thing I want is to fork our documentation |
| 19 |
code samples, and duplicate everything with "if you're on baselayout2 |
| 20 |
and/or openrc, do this instead...." instructions. That type of thing is |
| 21 |
a maintenance and usability headache. It's all or nothing. "There can be |
| 22 |
only one!" |

I'll be working on the migration guide with Cardoe (and possibly Roy, if |
| 25 |
we can tag-team him into submission). As much of a pain as migration |
| 26 |
will be, we'll definitely need a howto. Fun, fun. |
