documentation/poky-ref-manual/development.xml: removed section 

Removed the "Development Using Yocto Project Directly" section.
This information is better covered in the YP Development Manual
where it talks about modifying temporary source code.

<title>Development Using Yocto Project Directly</title>
<para>
Working directly with the Yocto Project is a fast and effective development technique.
The idea is that you can directly edit files in a working directory
(<filename><link linkend='var-WORKDIR'>WORKDIR</link></filename>)
or the source directory (<filename><link linkend='var-S'>S</link></filename>)
and then force specific tasks to rerun in order to test the changes.
An example session working on the matchbox-desktop package might
look like this:
</para>
<para>
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
$ bitbake matchbox-desktop
$ sh
$ cd tmp/work/armv5te-poky-linux-gnueabi/matchbox-desktop-2.0+svnr1708-r0/
$ cd matchbox-desktop-2
$ vi src/main.c
.
.
[Make your changes]
.
.
$ exit
$ bitbake matchbox-desktop -c compile -f
$ bitbake matchbox-desktop
</literallayout>
</para>
<para>
This example builds the <filename>matchbox-desktop</filename> package,
creates a new terminal, changes into the work directory for the package,
changes a file, exits out of the terminal, and then recompiles the
package.
Instead of using <filename>sh</filename>,
you can also use two different terminals.
However, the risk of using two terminals is that a command like
<filename>unpack</filename> could destroy your changes in the
work directory.
Consequently, you need to work carefully.
</para>
<para>
It is useful when making changes directly to the work directory files to do
so using the Quilt tool as detailed in the
"<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#using-a-quilt-workflow'>Using a Quilt Workflow</ulink>" section in the Yocto Project Development Manual.
Using Quilt, you can copy patches into the recipe directory and use the patches directly
through use of the <filename><link linkend='var-SRC_URI'>SRC_URI</link></filename> variable.
