             <dt>Q: Why a shell script, why not chef/puppet/...</dt>
70 70
             <dd>A: The script is meant to be read by humans (as well as ran by computers); it is the primary documentation after all.  Using a recipe system requires everyone to agree and understand chef or puppet.</dd>

73 73
             <dd>A: DevStack is optimized for documentation &amp; developers.  As some of us use <a href="https://github.com/dellcloudedge/crowbar">Crowbar</a> for production deployments, we hope developers documenting how they setup systems for new features supports projects like Crowbar.</dd>

Contributions follow the usual process as described in the <a href="http://wiki.openstack.org/HowToContribute">OpenStack wiki</a> even though DevStack is not an official OpenStack project.

             <dt>Q: Why not use packages?</dt>
79 79
             <dd>A: Unlike packages, DevStack leaves your cloud ready to develop - checkouts of the code and services running in screen. However, many people are doing the hard work of packaging and recipes for production deployments.  We hope this script serves as a way to communicate configuration changes between developers and packagers.</dd>

             <dt>Q: Why isn't $MY_FAVORITE_DISTRO supported?</dt>
82 82
             <dd>A: DevStack is meant for developers and those who want to see how OpenStack really works.  DevStack is known to run on the distro/release combinations listed in <code>README.md</code>.  DevStack is only supported on releases other than those documented in <code>README.md</code> on a best-effort basis.</dd>

             <dt>Q: Can DevStack handle a multi-node installation?</dt>
98 98
             <dd>A: Indirectly, yes.  You run DevStack on each node with the appropriate configuration in <code>local.conf</code>.  The primary considerations are turning off the services not required on the secondary nodes, making sure the passwords match and setting the various API URLs to the right place.</dd>

             <dd>A: DevStack includes a script (<code>tools/info.sh</code>) that gathers the versions of the relevant installed apt packages, pip packages and git repos.  This is a good way to verify what Python modules are installed.</dd>
