[yocto] [OE-core] 2.6 planning proposals and meeting

[Peter Kjellerstedt]

Not sure why you reordered the descriptions of the features from image,package,sdk,task to image,task,package,sdk (I added “task” at the end since that kept them sorted alphabetically), but apart from that it looks fine to me.

Hi Peter,
Thanks for the patch.  I have applied it to the 2.5 version of the Yocto Project Reference Manual (see https://yoctoproject.org/docs/2.5/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#var-BUILDHISTORY_FEATURES).  You can also see https://yoctoproject.org/docs/2.5/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#var-BUILDHISTORY_FEATURES for the commit in the yocto-docs repository.
Please look it over as I did a bit of modification for manual purposes.
Regards,
Scott

Writing down where you think there are issues would be a help so that
we can see if there is some way we can improve that.

Yes - please indicate any areas in the documentation you believe need updated, changed, or added.  I have been trying to bring things up-to-date in several manuals during the 2.5 process.  So, identifying areas in the 2.5 manual set would be very helpful.  To be sure you are viewing 2.5 manuals use the following form for the URL:
      yoctoproject.org/docs/2.5/<http://yoctoproject.org/docs/2.5/><manual_folder>/<manual_folder>.html
      where <manual_folder> is
           brief-yoctoprojectqs
           bsp-guide
           overview-manual
           dev-manual
           sdk-manual
           profile-manual
           kernel-dev
           ref-manual
           toaster-manual
           bitbake-user-guide
Thanks
Scott
Is there any special process to get manual updates accepted? I am asking because I sent an update for the BUILDHISTORY_FEATURES variable to the Yocto mailing list (https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2018-January/039787.html) at the end of January (last pinged a month ago) and it still has not made it into the manual AFAICT and it has not received any feedback.
