[yocto] couple questions about cleaning up the Quick Start Guide

[Rifenbark, Scott M]

Robert, 

Thanks for the stuff and the look here.  Regarding your first point - I don't have a problem using the real link over the redirect.  The only things that come to mind are if they work why change them?  But, if the community wants the downloads.yoctoproject.org/releases URL in there I can certainly go in and make changes to master.  

On the second point - you are absolutely correct here.  I will fix that in master to reflect where the tarball really is.  I think as the project moves forward there will be more consistency.  Early life jitters I guess :)

Thanks for your input.

Scott

Subject: [yocto] couple questions about cleaning up the Quick Start Guide


  perusing the QS guide in prep for giving a yocto talk this week to
my local LUG and some cosmetic changes i can submit a patch for:

1) www.yoctoproject.org/downloads clearly redirects to
   downloads.yoctoproject.org/releases these days.  any objection
   to my just changing the former references to the latter throughout
   the QS guide?

2) there's a reference to the edison tarball

http://www.yoctoproject.org/downloads/poky/poky-edison-6.0.tar.bz2

   but there's no such tarball, it's at

http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/releases/yocto/yocto-1.1/poky-edison-6.0.tar.bz2

  although *older* tarballs are under the "downloads" directory.
what's the proper directory location for this stuff?  can it be made
consistent?  thanks.
