* Add a new "Security" sectionAntonin Godard2026-01-262-195/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current security-related documentation is a bit hard to find and hidden within the development manual. However these are processes that are not part of a development task but is rather a vulnerability reporting process. Create a new "Security" section in the documentation to gather this information. This will be directly visible in the sidebar when opening the documentation. Split the previous security-subjects.rst document into 2 documents: - security-team.rst: defines the roles of the security teams and its members. - reporting-vulnerabilities.rst: guide to report vulnerabilities to the security team. The plan is to backport these documents to active releases. As a consequence, this section should be free of instructions and information that only make sense for a specific release. It should _not_ contain documents on how to enable security features with Yocto on target devices, this is unrelated and can be left in the development manual (for example: dev-manual/vulnerabilities.rst to deal with CVEs).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To simplify the style, replace "Following is" and "Following are" by "here is" and "here are", sounding more natural. In some cases, also go further by simplifying "Here are/is xxx" by "xxx are/is" when the "are" or "is" are not two far at the end of the sentence. In some cases too, completely remove the sentence, when it's redundant with the preceding title.

I located the most relevant places to reference the extension by looking at how the old Eclipse plugin was documented in the 2.6 manuals as well as the current Toaster references.
