      . Would like to feedback. After that integrate with Wiki or others.
      . ScottR: sent email to Eren. Fold part of this into quick start. Bitbake information will be good to be in the newly revised bitbake manual.  Will get this in Bill's hands. Suggest Eren to post specific technical questions on the mailing list. Hopefully Eren can get answers there. Afterwards, will work together to integrate this doc.
      . Eren: good plan. Will get answers to technical questions first, then work with Scott to integrate the doc.
  - ScottR: adding doc alert to comments in Bugzilla when filing a bug that effects documentation
      . If you are filing a bug or working on a bug you think might affect doc, it will be help if you add a comment (something like 'this will affect documentation')to alert ScottR and add ScottR in the CC list of the bug. We are trying to be more proactive on doc changes for this release.
