January 2026 — OpenNMS/opennms: Delivered a Documentation Modernization initiative across Core and Meridian, standardizing deployment and installation guidance, and aligning naming to Core. Highlights include consolidation of deployment docs, unified JDBC driver installation guidance, and conversion of Air-Gap docs to Asciidoc. Removed references to Rocky Linux and clarified CentOS 10 deployment. Reorganized and renamed installation sections for Core, Minion, and Sentinel to install.adoc, improving consistency and onboarding. Completed related doc-build cleanups to reduce warnings and future maintenance overhead. These changes accelerate time-to-value for operators and reduce support overhead by ensuring consistent, up-to-date guidance across platforms.
