* dev-manual: Removed "newbie" chapter.Scott Rifenbark2018-05-241-0/+627
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This chapter only had the stuff about submitting a defect against YP and making a change to YP. I moved that information into the common tasks chapter as it is "how-to" information. Removal of this chapter alse required that the mega-manual.xml file be updated to not include the chapter.

It had an old example that used the "daisy" release that showed how to share packages and re-use binaries. I replaced the example with a discussion of Freescale's "fsl-dynamic-packagearch" class, which does this type of sharing.

* dev-manual: Cleaned up layer naming terminologyScott Rifenbark2018-03-251-60/+111
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reality dictates that the YP does not treat layer naming consistently. Layers are talked about as the "meta-whatever" layer and never the "whatever" layer. However, the tooling sometimes appends or uses just the "whatever" part of the layer name. A good example is the meta-yocto-bsp configuration file. All the variables in there use just the root name of a layer's name. In the manuals, I had been distinguishing the layer name as just the "whatever" part sans "meta-". I talked about the convention of using "meta-" in front of layer names, etc. Well, this is confusing in light of how everyone says a layer's name is "meta-whatever". So, I fixed all this up.
