The 'Attributes' section in the README is for documentation on relevant cookbook-level attributes, see eg. https://github.com/opscode-cookbooks/tomcat#attributes
So in this case we would include node['islandora']['version']
, node['php']['upload_max_filesize']
, etc. In particular, some that are ideally set at the VM/Vagrantfile level should be highlighted, eg. node['tomcat']['java_options']
.
Common practice is to delegate documentation on components (Fedora, Solr, etc.) to those respective cookbooks, though in this case we've broken from practice by including the cookbooks within the same repo. I would propose that this type of internal documentation go into a wiki page.

I'm thinking of stuff like:
