[vcap-dev] docs.cloudfoundry.com out of date?

It appears that docs.cloudfoundry.com is serving up last week's version
of "cf-docs". There's been some good detail re deploying Ruby apps added
recently, but it's not live yet.

More disturbingly, I'm pretty sure it's reverted; I sent someone a link to
this page last night:

http://docs.cloudfoundry.com/docs/using/deploying-apps/ruby/index.html


when I'm positive it contained info about VCAP_APPLICATION etc.

Mike,

The docs are undergoing a pretty intense cleanup right now as you can see
from https://github.com/cloudfoundry/cf-docs/commits/master

There is an intentional manual deployment step between having the docs on
master get published on docs.cloudfoundry.com. The docs team may revisit
that soon, but that's how it is designed currently. I suspect you'll see
some updates again this week based on last week's trend. Please use issues
and pull requests and we'll process them as soon as we can.

I am working with IBM Research for the summer and there is also a great
desire for updated documentation from people here. It is great to see you
guys are working on improving the docs.

If there is anything you need free labor for, I will be more than happy to
help. My work is in semi-automated understanding of the topology of
distributed systems and I am using CF as the test case. I think better docs
would help me verify the outcomes of my work better as well.

Thanks Nima. I would appreciate any specific input, if you have any,
about topics that IBM considers poorly or (not at all) addressed.

Can you tell me how you are interacting with CF? Are you involved in
setting up and running a cloud foundry instance at IBM, or are you pushing
apps to Pivotal's hosted instance? Either way, if you are pushing apps, if
you find errors or omissions in the CF docs, it would be great if you could
pass the info on. Please feel free to contact me directly if you like.

Best regards,

Marie
