The top-level README document has got pretty unwieldy and so we need to switch to add some more structure to our documentation. The first step is to split out sub-sections of the README document into separate files in a new 'docs' directory. Whilst splitting up the README, we can also take the opportunity to tidy things up and fix a couple of typos. Signed-off-by: Paul Barker <pbarker@toganlabs.com>

## Mailing list
|
|
|
|
The main communication tool we use is a mailing list:
|
|
* yocto@yoctoproject.org
|
|
* https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
|
|
|
|
Feel free to ask any kind of questions but always prepend your email subject
|
|
with "[meta-raspberrypi]". This is because we use the 'yocto' mailing list and
|
|
not a perticular 'meta-raspberrypi' mailing list.
|
|
|
|
