--- Comment #57 from David Nind <david at davidnind.com> ---
Could I get some feedback on the documentation required?

My initial thoughts, as this is a technical change and is not something that
I'm in any way familiar with:

1. This change:
   a. release note about what this change does - I have added the
release-notes-needed keyword
   b. communication to the main Koha and development mailing lists about
Elasticsearch/OpenSearch support for 22.11 and supported releases (or maybe
just in the 22.11 release notes)

2. Installing and configuring Elasticsearch/OpenSearch:
   a. I'm not sure what we have currently, and how up-to-date it is. Any
pointers to the Wiki and other sources would be appreciated.
   b. Should we have a link from the main Koha installation guide to some
instructions on the basics?
   c. What should be in scope? If the Elasticsearch/OpenSearch installation is
sufficient, then we should link to that, and only provide any Koha specific
things to consider.

3. Guide to using Elasticsearch: this is not something we have now, but
something we could potentially work on.

4. Supported version matrix, including OpenSearch options.

5. Material for developers, including the KTD development environment and how
to get the various versions working.

For anything more than item 1, I'm proposing to create separate documentation
bugs for these:

- Omnibus Elasticsearch/OpenSearch documentation bug

- Specific guides covering:
  . Installation and administration (from a system administration perspective -
keeping things running)
  . Using Elasticsearch/OpenSearch: more from a library point of view,
including an overview, configuring, options, mappings, etc - the day-to-day
things to make sure the search in Koha is working as required.

- Development guide: from a developer perspective and what to do when working
on search-related bugs, testing various versions, KTD environment.

Some help would be required with these, as it seems to me to be a quite
technical area with some expertise required.

David
