I agree.

So, things related to Buildroot internal community (like GSoC, BR dev. days)
should stay in the "Getting involved" section, while the other items,
mostly talks
or presentation of BR should go as appendices maybe.

Then, this appendices could be referred from many place in the manual:
- the "Adding new package to Buildroot" section;
- a to-be-written section dealing with "Workflow with Buildroot" or
something like that;
- ...

Any comments about this?
