Research direction
Start with the WRITING CLOUD DRIVER MODULES section at the linked Salt documentation location and compare its Linode example with the current cloud driver modules. Identify an existing module that still uses libcloud, then update the documentation example. Done means the page points newcomers to an accurate libcloud-based example instead of Linode.
