Juju Docs now live!

Dear everybody,
The new docs for Juju are now live at https://juju.ubuntu.com/docs/ !

This is an incredible relief to everyone I'm sure, and I'm only sorry that
due to an oversight on my part it has been accidentally delivered a bit
ahead of schedule.

However, there is still a lot of work to do! I know the new docs are an
improvement, but let's face it, that wasn't hard as the old ones had become
woefully out of date and hard to navigate. Let's not let the new ones get
woefully out of date! Let's actually try and make them really rather great!

WHY?
Whether or not you particularly care about reading the docs, I can
guarantee you that new users do. It would be a great shame to encourage,
cajole and bribe people into using Juju, only to have them hit the docs,
find things that don't work or don't make sense and give up on the whole
thing in disgust. It really is that simple. By doing a terrible job on
docs, we have the power to permanently dissuade anybody from ever using
Juju again! Or, on the other hand, we can make it really rather great.

HOW?
If you want to contribute to the docs, that *is* really great. You will
find that there is a page that explains how to do just that -
https://juju.ubuntu.com/docs/contributing.html
You can currently check out the HTML from
https://launchpad.net/juju-core/docs

HOWEVER, even if you don't think you can write, by the miraculous power of
Launchpad, you can still contribute! Find something wrong? A typo? An
example that doesn't work (they are all tested, but sneaky people have a
habit of changing the code)? Maybe a feature that is missed out, or even a
tip on how to do something better - file a bug report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/juju-core/docs/

Thanks!
