+        Welcome to the Yocto Project Software Development Kit (SDK)
+        Developer's Guide.
+        This manual provides information that lets you use both the standard
+        Yocto Project SDK and an extensible SDK to develop applications and
+        images using the Yocto Project.

+    <para>
+        Prior to the 2.0 Release of the Yocto Project, application
+        development was primarily accomplished through the use of the
+        Application Development Toolkit (ADT) and the availability
+        of stand-alone cross-development toolchains and other tools.
+        With the 2.1 Release of the Yocto Project, application development
+        has transitioned to within a more traditional SDK and extensible
+        SDK.
