2nd. We need to figure out the process to generate the content for
this doc plug-in since normally the content will be finalized toward
the end of a release.  So is there an automated way to generate the
content that ScottR (our tech writer) can use to generate the content
once he's done his writing.  Or he needs to inform you to create it
and send the pull request?

I simply converted the docbook documents to eclipse help using the
eclipse stylesheet provided by docbook itself. I could either provide
the exact xslt call or generate the documentation as you proposed.

To do this in an automated way the calls could be added directly to the
documentation build system, so the eclipse help can be generated along
with the rest of the documentation output.

As the CCA-SA hasn't been approved here at my company I'm struggeling to
propose patches to the doc build system and integrate the eclipse help
generation.
I would be happy to contribute under the BSD license, if the "Code
Submissions" clause (which would be BSD license,
http://www.yoctoproject.org/about/terms-service) applies to the build
system. I've already asked about this on the mailing list. I messed up
with the subject ([yocto] Documentation question: How are the), but
until now nobody knew if the "Code Submissions" clause really applies here.

[JZ] I've checked with our release engineer and she pointed that according to 
LICENSE file under poky directory, all the file without explicitly stated will 
be defaulted to GPLv2.  Since our doc build makefile fall into this case, your 
patch needs to be GPLv2.

That's great news. Thank you for the clarification. I'm already working on the patches that include the eclipse help generation.



3rd. We have autobuilder that use our eclipse plug-in headless build
to build the plugin and put on the download site for
update/installating.  So have you verified the doc plug-in works with
our existing headless build?

Yes, I have used the build.sh in the scripts folder to build the archive
and the update site and it built without errors (and can also be
installed from the generated update site).
By the way is there any way to specify that the script shall use a local
clone of the repository? I've been changing the GIT_URL in the script to
actually achieve this.

[JZ] I'm afraid not atm but patches are always welcome :-)




Best regards,
Timo
