Text that suggests setting the BB_NUMBER_THREADS and
PARALLEL_MAKE variables to speed build time has been updated to
suggest a setting of twice the number of host cores supported.
The 2x number came to light through a discussion on the project

There are many references to YP documentation throughout the
YP manual set. They used to have hard-coded links to the
current release (e.g. yoctoproject.org/docs/1.1 for Edison).
This created a situation where if you went to a document on
the website and clicked on a external reference to another
manual, you would redirect to the current manual on the website.
Really, you would want to go to the latest manual, which is
one that is under development. Changing the links to
"yoctoproject.org/docs/latest" makes the tip of master, which
is used for devloping the next release, always have references
to the manuals being developed and not back to the stable
released set of manuals.
This "latest" and "current" scheme for the links is not perfect.
What has to happen when the latest set of the manuals freezes
and becomes the next stable release, all the links in the docs
will need to be changed from "latest" in the URL to the new
release number. So for example, all the "latest" occurences
would need to be changed to "1.2". Then for the next cycle
as development begins again, the links need to be infused with
"latest" again.

Robert was working through this BSP example in the development manual
and ran into some problems and some confusion in areas. This launched
a long "help-desk" session with Tom Zanussi. In addressing Robert's
issues, Tom decided to make a run through of the example as it was
written. For the most part the example was sound but needed some
technical tweaks as well as some expansion of the text to make things
clearer. Tom submitted the patch that addressed these concerns.
Scott Rifenbark reviewed the patch and further modified some of the
writing to make it consistent with the existing writing in the manual.
