01d53451fb Documentation: Updated Manual Notes
I did some re-wording to account for when the user does a web
search for a manual and the search returns an ancient version
of the manual.  Many times the user is oblivious of this fact
and is trying to use a version of the docs that don't come close
to matching the version of the YP.

30b91e6d89 documentation: Removed "usingpoky" chapter from ref-manual
Fixes [YOCTO #12370]

All of the information from the "usingpoky" chapter in the
ref-manual has been distributed out over the rest of the
YP manual set.  Primarily, this information went into the
dev-manual and the overview-manual.  Because the chapter is
no more, I had to update the mega-manual.xml to not include that
chapter. Also, had to update ref-manual to exclude the chapter
as part of the Make process.

9b4575b508 ref-manual: Removed the "technical-details.xml" file
Fixes [YOCTO #12370]

The "technical-details.xml" file was for the old chapter four of the
ref-manual.  All content in that chapter has been moved to the new
concepts chapter of the overview-manual.  I updated the mega-manual.xml
file to not include the old technical-details chapter as part of the
ref-manual.  I also updated the ref-manual.xml file to not include the
technical-details.xml chapter when building the ref-manual.

60cfd0785b ref-manual: Separated terms into separate chapter
Pulling out some introductory information from the old "Introduction"
chapter of the ref-manual has isolated the system requirements and
term definitions sections.  I have decided to create a new chapter
for terms as they are a reference item.  This leaves system requirements
also alone as a new chapter.  So, I dumped the introduction.xml chapter
in favor of the two new chapters.

b797db0db4 documentation: Created new YP Overview Manual
Fixes [YOCTO #12370]

Added a new chapter to the newly created Yocto Project Overview
Manual.  This chapter originated from the YP Reference Manual and
was the old chapter 3, which talked a lot about various concepts.
This information is better suited for the new overview manual.

The change involved moving the entire chapter and renaming it.
This move of the content affected many, many external references
and links into the old area.  Consequently, I had to recast all
these links from the different manual.

Changes also included fixing the mega-manual.xml file so that it
would include the new overview manual as part of it.

Many figures had to be relocated as part of the move as well.  This
meant deleting them from the ref-manual/figures folder and putting
them into the overview-manual/figures folder.

cbe8009a17 dev-manual, ref-manual: Moved kickstart reference to ref-manual
This section was misplaced in the dev-manual and really needed to
be in the ref-manual.  I created a new chapter that follows the
devtool reference chapter and put the kickstart chapter there.

Links were needed to be fixed up and a new chapter in the
ref-manual named ref-kickstart.xml had to be created.

de6d45fefc documentation: Re-org for "closer-look" chapter
Fixes [YOCTO #11630]

The ref-manual needs expansion for the old "closer-look" chapter.
This chapter previously held a detailed look at what happens when
a user uses the YP to develop something.  Now, the chapter needs
to also contain YP development environment concepts (e.g. open-
source philosophy, etc.), which are coming from the dev-manual.

Because of this, I renamed the "closer-look.xml" chapter to be
"ref-development-environment.xml".  I also renamed the larger
section that was formerly the entire chapter into its own section
named "Development Concepts".

Both these changes caused a few links to break.  I fixed all the
links from within the various manuals so they would find appropriate
targets.

I did some re-writing for introductory material to introduce the new
chapter and the section on "Development Concepts".

A new file ("ref-development-environment.xml") was added by basically
renaming the "closer-look.xml" chapter.  And, the tracking for
"closer-look.xml" was deleted.

Fixes [YOCTO #5368]

Changes partially address this issue, which is the removal of
tarball installations for poky.  The notes at the beginning of
the YP manuals suggested that the tarball version of a manual
might lag the version found on the website.  Because we are
discouraging installing poky/documentation from a tarball now,
I have re-written the note to be generic and suggest simply that
for the most recent version of the manual associated with the
release, see the manual on the website.

a41a805500 documentation: Part 1 of 2 updates to integrating docs to Eclipse help.
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.

ed0a240e16 documentation: Rename of poky-ref-manual folder to ref-manual.
Changing the folder that holds the YP Reference Manual to be
"ref-manual".  This will help with confustion over the manual's
intended purpose.
