 Examples files for a working (basic) configuration of sphinx.
 To be used by all ONAP projects (except 'doc' project).
 Extend them to reflect the needs in your project.
-Please note the different pathes, the files are located in!
 
-## FILE: tox.ini_MASTER
+We provide two directories:
+- **master**: Contains configuration files used in the **development branch**.
+- **istanbul**: Contains configuration files used in the **release branch**
+   (e.g.'istanbul'). **Important**: You need to change the 'istanbul' entries
+   in the files! Replace them with the name of the new release branch.
 
-##### USE:
-in MASTER branch of your repository
-##### PATH:
-{project}/docs
-##### TODO:
-remove _MASTER from filename
+The additional directories named *_static* and *images* and the file
+*index.rst* are required to make the examples buildable. In the respective
+directory you can execute the '*tox -e docs*' command and the build starts. 
 
-## FILE: tox.ini_NEWBRANCH
+## FILE: conf.py
+##### DESCRIPTION:
+The “build configuration file” contains (almost) all configuration needed to
+customize Sphinx input and output behavior.
