The URL naming convention for the YP Release Notes has changed.
It now takes the following form:
http://www.yoctoproject.org/download/yoctoproject-15-poky-1000
The above is an example for YP Release 1.5 and poky release 10.0.0.
I have set up three new variables in the poky.ent file to somewhat
automate the links in the docs to point to the location of a given
set of release notes:
1. DISTRO_COMPRESSED - set to the DISTRO string with no period
(e.g 15 for 1.5).
2. POKYVERSION_COMPRESSED - set to the poky version with no
periods (e.g. 1000 for 10.0.0).
3. YOCTO_RELEASE_NOTES - set to the full-blown release note
URL.
I made two changes to existing links for the Release Notes. One
was in the dev-manual and one was in the ref-manual.

Added a couple of notes to point out the ease of creating your
own distro and not just relying on a Poky distribution. One
note is at the very beginning of the manual and mentions
Angstrom as an example of a distro based on the YP. The
other note is at the beginning of the second chapter.

I went through and got rid of all references to the old
YP Kernel Architecture and Use Manual and replaced with
appropriate references to the new YP Linux Kernel
Development Manual.
I also laced in appropriate references into various sections
of the new YP Profiling and Tracing Manual.
Also, updated the list of resource manuals to reflect the
new manual set (addition of kernel-dev and profile-dev and
removal of kernel-manual).

Robert P. J. Day pointed out a link in the development manual that
was for the BitBake User Manual. The link resolved to an old,
non-maintained version of BitBake documentation. According to
Richard Purdie, the BitBake docs referenced should be the ones
that ship in the bitbake/doc/manual directory of poky. The
YP docs had been using a variable named BITBAKE_DOCS_URL that
also resolved to the antiquated user manual site. Consequently,
there were many links that needed fixed across both the YP
Development Manual and the YP Reference Manual. Each of these
references now points in general to the bitbake/doc/manual
directory in poky for more information.

the built or downloaded file you boot will be named
"build-appliance-image."

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.
