Frans, 

Thanks for pointing this out.  I have updated the version of the manual at http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.html with the change.  

Thanks,
Scott

Yocto team,

Thanks for making this happen & congrats with the release.

As our next project might be yocto based (moving from oe-classic), I
decided to give it a spin right away and noticed one tiny thing
I peeked at http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.html
to start me up

This seems to work fine, with the following exception.
The doc says:

To help conserve disk space during builds, you can add the following
statement to your project's configuration file, which for this example
is poky-denzil-7.0-build/conf/local.conf. Adding this statement
deletes the work directory used for building a package once the
package is built.

     INHERIT += rm_work

Unfortunately this gives an error.
It seems a pair of quotes is missing and this should really be
INHERIT += "rm_work"

Otherwise no issues (yet)

Best regards, Frans

> Features
> - --------------------
>
>  - HOB redesigned with new user interface and work flow. HOB is a GUI based
>   tool for users to customize and build an embedded Linux image in a more
>   intuitive and easier way.
>  - Build appliance, which is a set of changes and enhancements to enable
>   users to build a virtual machine image running Linux built with the Yocto
>   Project. Within the Linux running on the virtual machine, users can
>   customize and build their own customized embedded Linux images.
>  - Error message handling improvement, making error message more efficient,
>   useful and accurate to users.
>  - New kernel update to Linux 3.2.11.
>  - Kernel usability scripts, BSP tools to make building BSP's easier.
>  - Package history data collection and analysis tools.
>  - Incremental image generation after customization of an existing image built
>   previously.
>  - Package history data collection and analysis tools.
>  - Implementation of the MSG (Magic Smoke Generator) which enables the on board
>   generation of "magic smoke" to enhance the longevity of embedded device
>   components.
>  - Enhancement to Bitbake commander Eclipse plugin, Disk space monitoring,
>   multilib improvement, etc.
>  - Improvements to FLOSS compliance tools which allow more granularity of
>   license definitions, the generation of image manifests/license manifests
>   and the implementation of source archiving functionality.
>
> - --------------------
> Known Issues
> - --------------------
>
>  - Bug 2256 - kernel menuconfig confusion with sstate.
>
>   If you change the config during a build, bitbake may not detect the change
>   and will not rebuild the kernel. After changing the config, be sure to
>   force a kernel recompile:
>
>      $ bitbake virtual/kernel -c menuconfig
>
>      $ bitbake virtual/kernel -c compile -f; bitbake virtual/kernel
>
>  - Bug 1858 - Rootfs creation broken when using package_deb as primary
>              PACKAGE_CLASSES with non Debian-OS build system.
>
>   This is a known issue that rootfs  creation is broken when using package_deb
>   as primary PACKAGE_CLASSES with non Debian-OS build system.  The work around
>   is to use a Debian system to create the rootfs if you need to using
> package_deb
>   as primary PACKAGE_CLASSES.   But for package generation e.g. for
> package feed,
>   etc. it works fine on both Debian-OS or non Debian-OS.
