Right, take 2. This is a list of the things that seem to me we'll need to
change in the Toaster manual for 2.0:

* Do we remove the section about the 2 modes? Ed: do you think you will
have patches on time?

* If the above is yes, remove all other references to 'modes' scattered
across the manual

* If the above is yes, Belén will need to provide a new video showing the
new single mode

* Do we want to keep the explanation of the installation options?

http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.8/toaster-manual/toaster-manual.html#toa
ster-installation-options

* Change section 2.2.1 Optionally Setting Up a Python Virtual Environment.
This should now be presented as the preferred way of setting up Toaster

* Remove section 2.2.3 Install daemon. The dependency on daemon has been
removed

* What do we want to do with chapter 3? Should we explain how to set up
Toaster locally first, then how to set it up as a hosted service? Brian:
you had some ideas about this, I think.

* I believe there have been some changes in the build delete command, but
can't find anything in Bugzilla. Brian: was it you who make those changes
by any chance?

* Update preconfigured releases and toasterconf.json file snippets to show
the new release list

If I am missing anything, please add to the list.

Thanks!

Belén
