+OPNFV User guide documentation instruction
+=============================================
+
+Including your Documentation
+------------------------------
+
+Add your documentation to your repository in the folder structure and according to the template listed above. The documentation template you will require are available in the opnfvdocs repository, you should copy the relevant templates to the /docs/userguide directory in your repository. For instance if I wanted to document enabling my feature set in the platform I would follow an example like:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+   mkdir <my_repo>/docs/userguide
+   git clone ssh://<your_id>@gerrit.opnfv.org:29418/opnfvdocs.git
+   cp opnfvdocs/docs/userguide/userguide.rst <my_repo>/docs/userguide
+
+
+You should then add the relevant information to the template that will explain the usage of your feature and instructions for validating that the feature was used successfully like checking the results of specific test cases. Be sure to maintain the creative commons license from the template and ensure all your documentation files include the license information.
+
+Once your documentation is ready you should ensure they are compiled into the staging files by adding them to the master <section>.rst file in the opnfvdocs repository. The staging files are structured in such a way that you should refer to your document in the correct section of the document structure.
+
+An example of how to add your documentation to the relevant sections of the feature-usage.rst file might be:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+   git clone ssh://<your_id>@gerrit.opnfv.org:29418/opnfvdocs.git
+   cd opnfvdocs
+   git review -s
+   vim docs/userguide/feature-usage.rst '
+
+
+At this point you should add the references to your files into the index.rst file, for instance in the feature description section you would add the line:
+The following sections of the user guide provide feature specific usage guidelines and references.
+Providing users the necessary information to leveraging the features in the platform,
+some operation in this section may refer back to the guides in the general system usage section.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+.. include:: ../projects/promise/userguide/userguide.rst
+.. include:: ../projects/copper/userguide/userguide.rst  Using Brahmaputra Features
+.. include:: ../projects/<my_repo>/userguide/userguide.rst''
+
+
+If this is the first contribution from your project to the composite document files you will need to add your project to the build-composite.sh file in the opnfvdocs directory. This is done my editing the jsdgf file and adding your repository name to the get_repo_names() function of the script. Assuming you are still in the opnfvdocs directory edit the file with the following command:
+' vim build-composite.sh '
+
+
+Once you have the file open, add your projects repository to the get_repo_names() function:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+	get_repo_names() {
+	  # NOTE: Not all repositories are ready for the composite docs,
+	  #       so we have the repo name list here to add project docs
+	  #       one by one. This will be replaced by the list in project.cfg .
+	  # grep -v '^#' releng/jjb/opnfvdocs/project.cfg | sort
+	  echo "sdnvpn"
+	  echo "<my_repo>"
+
+
+Once you have made these changes you need to push the patch back to the opnfvdocs team for review and integration.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+	' git add . '
+	' git commit --signoff --all '
+	' git review '
+
+ 
+
+Be sure to add the project leader of the opnfvdocs project as a reviewer of the change you just pushed in gerrit. Also be aware that once the text is available in the context of the broader release document it may require some revising and editorial work to prepare it for release.
