Hi John,

I'd like to draft a user guide for erasure coded pools, oriented toward system administrators. Where do you advise me to insert this ? Should I get inspiration from an example ?

Thanks in advance for any pointers or advice :-)

the docs dir isn't good for that? If not, might be that the Wiki is a 
proper location?

Are you suggesting something like doc/dev/erasure-coded-pool.rst next to doc/dev/cache-pool.rst ? I'm not sure about the wiki.

Yes, why not? That way all the docs are in a central place.

I should have checked the tracker. Thanks Neil :-) http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/7548#note-1
