Here are the different URLs for all the needed projects:

https://github.com/enovance/edeploy/releases/tag/1.4.0
https://github.com/enovance/edeploy-roles/releases/tag/I.1.0.0
https://github.com/enovance/puppet-openstack-cloud/releases/tag/I.1.0.0
https://github.com/enovance/openstack-serverspec/releases/tag/I.1.0.0

This setups OpenStack with HA on a minimum of 3 nodes, using Ceph as
block storage (for both Cinder volumes and Glance). Upgrades from one
version to the next is supported (ie: version I.1.0.0 (as in Icehouse)
can upgrade H.1.3.0 (as in Havana)).

I hope this helps.

Cheers,

Thomas
