The section on the devtool workflow in the dev-manual was 99%
identical to what was in the sdk-manual. I have moved the
workflow procedure from the old "Model" chapter of the dev-manual
to be merged with what was in the sdk-manual. In truth, the
only things added were a note about devtool not being exclusive
to SDK development.
The result of moving (deleting) this section was that the "model"
chapter of the dev-manual went away. The devtool stuff, Quilt,
devshell, and python shell are all out now and there is no
chapter left. So, mega-manual had to be adjusted to not pull that
chapter in when building the dev-manual. I had to delete three
figures that were used in the flow. The figures were already
replicated in the sdk-manual. The figures were deleted from the
figures folder of both the dev-manual and the mega-manual.
I had to make sure all references to the old devtool stuf in the
YP doc set were adjusted.

and thus does not belong in the reconstituted dev-manual, which is
converting to a "how-to" manual. I have moved this section to the

Moving the section affected several things. Three figures that where
in the dev-manual were copied and moved to the figures folder of the

adding them to the ref-manual.
The makefile had to be edited to move those figures into the ref-manual
and delete them from the latest version of the dev-manual in order for
the tarball of files to be correct when the manuals are made.
Links to anchors within the moved section had to be fixed in various
manuals. Links to the main section "id" had to be fixed to point

This commit adds the three *.customization.xsl files. I
(Scott Rifenbark). Split the commit because after applying the
18 patches, the list of stuff to stage was huge and I did not
want to add them one-by-one. So I staged them using git add -u.
Here is the general cover letter information from Timo included
with the 18 patches:
-----------------
Hi,
the generation of eclipse help files has been merged from the timo
branch to the master. Since the creation of the timo branch there have
been some changes to the master branch (e.g. new documentation,
renamed documentation).
This patch set does some cleanup for the renamed documentation and
adds eclipse help generation support to the new documentation.
01: Removes the 'the' from the document titles
02..04: Cleanup obsolete artifacts resulting from the merge
05..08: Add eclipse help generation for ref-manual
09..13: Add eclipse help generation for kernel-dev
14..18: Add eclipse help generation for profile-manual
Best regards,
Timo

This patch set originally contained 18 patches. I (Scott Rifenbark)
had to push these changes as two parts. This is the first part.
It does not include creation of the three cusomization files.

The "-dirty" String section from the old YP Kernel Architecture
and Use Manual was moved to section 2.3 of the manual. It needs
to find the right area to be put in (AR for Darren). I added the
AR text to the top of the section so it would not fall through
the cracks.

A Section about seeing what has changed in a kernel tree
was moved from the old YP Kernel Architecture and Use Manual
to this new manual. The section moved was "Change Inspection:
Changes/Commits". In addition to moving the sections, I
shortened them up by removing verbose parts of the section.

New appendix required adding the kernel-dev-maint-appx.xml
file. The contents are sections 3.2 and 3.3 from the old
YP Kernel Architecture and Use Manual, which is "Tree
Construction" and "Build Strategy." According to Darren Hart,
this information should be retained for the few people on
the planet that might ever need it. In addition to adding
the new file, I had to add the bits to the kernel-dev.xml
manual to support including the appendix when making the
manual.

Moved the "Kernel Architecture" section from the YP Kernel
Architecture and Use Manual to this manual. The section
included the kernel-architecture-overview.png figure. So,
I added that PNG file to the "figures" folder. Finally, I
had to also add the PNG file to the Makefile tarfile list
for kernel-dev. Note that because the figure was part of
the old YP Kernel Architecture and Use Manual, I did not have
to add the figure to the mega-manual tarfile list.

The concepts in three bulleted items in the old kernel manual
need to be present in this new manual. I put in a bit of text
right at the beginning of the manual in the form of an AR for
Darren. This will eventually be removed, but for now it is there
so that it won't slip through the cracks.
