-*********
-.. index:: Ecosystem
-
-The RTEMS Ecosystem is the collection of tools, packages, code, documentation
-and online content provided by the RTEMS Project. The ecosystem provides a way
-to develop, maintain, and use RTEMS. It's parts interact with the user, the
-host environment, and each other to make RTEMS accessible, useable and
-predicable.
-
-The ecosystem is for users, developers and maintainers and it is an ongoing
-effort that needs your help and support. The RTEMS project is always improving
-the way it delivers the kernel to you and your feedback is important so please
-join the mailing lists and contribute back comments, success stories, bugs and
-patches.
-
-What the RTEMS project describes here to develop, maintain and use RTEMS does
-not dictate what you need to use in your project. You can and should select the
-work-flow that best suites the demands of your project and what you are
-delivering.
-
-Rational
-========
-
-RTEMS is complex and the focus of the RTEMS Ecosystem is to simplify the
-complexity for users by providing a stable documented way to build, configure
-and run RTEMS. RTEMS is more than a kernel running real-time applications on
-target hardware, it is part of a project's and therefore team's workflow and
-every project and team is different.
-
-RTEMS's ecosystem does not mandate a way to work. It is a series of parts,
-components, and items that are used to create a suitable development
-environment to work with. The processes explained in this manual are the same
-things an RTEMS maintainer does to maintain the kernel or an experienced user
-does to build their production system. It is important to keep this in mind
-when working through this manual. We encourage users to explore what can be
-done and to discover ways to make it fit their needs. The ecosystem provided by
-the RTEMS Project will not install in a single click of a mouse because we want
-users to learn the parts they will come to depend on as their project's
-development matures.
-
-The RTEMS Ecosystem provides a standard interface that is the same on all
-supported host systems. Standardizing how a user interacts with RTEMS is
-important and making that experience portable is also important. As a result
-the ecosystem is documented at the command line level and we leave GUI and IDE
-integration for users and integrators.
-
-Standardizing the parts and how to use them lets users create processes and
-procedures that are stable over releases. The RTEMS Ecosystem generates data
-that can be used to audit the build process so their configuration can be
-documented.
-
-The ecosystem is based around the source code used in the various parts,
-components and items of the RTEMS development environment. A user can create
-an archive of the complete build process including all the source code for long
-term storage. This is important for projects with a long life cycle.
-
-Open Source
-===========
-
-RTEMS is an open source operating system and an open source project and this
-extends to the ecosystem. We encourage users to integrate the processes to
-build tools, the kernel and any 3rd party libraries into their project's
-configuration management processes.
-
-All the parts that make up the ecosystem are open source. The ecosystem uses a
-package's source code to create an executable on a host so when an example
-RTEMS executable is created and run for the first time the user will have built
-every tool as well as the executable from source. The RTEMS Project believes
-the freedom this gives a user is as important as the freedom of having access
-to the source code for a package.
-
-Deployment
-==========
-
-The RTEMS Project provides the ecosystem as source code that users can download
-to create personalised development environments. The RTEMS Project does not
-provide packaging and deployment for a specific host environment, target
-architecture or BSP. The RTEMS Project encourages users and organizations to
-fill this role for the community.
-
-Building and Deploying Tool Binaries
-------------------------------------
-
-If you wish to create and distribute your build or you want to archive a build
-you can create a tar file. We term this deploying a build. This is a more
-advanced method for binary packaging and installing of tools.
-
-By default the RTEMS Source Builder installs the built packages directly and
-optionally it can also create a *build set tar file* or a *package tar file*
-per package built. The normal and default behaviour is to let the RTEMS Source
-Builder install the tools. The source will be downloaded, built, installed and
-cleaned up.
-
-The tar files are created with the full build prefix present and if you follow
-the examples given in this documentation the path is absolute. This can cause
-problems if you are installing on a host you do not have super user or
-administrator rights on because the prefix path may references part you do not
-have write access too and tar will not extract the files. You can use the
-``--strip-components`` option in tar if your host tar application supports it
-to remove the parts you do not have write access too or you may need to unpack
-the tar file somewhere and copy the file tree from the level you have write
-access from. Embedding the full prefix path in the tar files lets you know what
-the prefix is and is recommended. For example if
-``/home/chris/development/rtems/4.11`` is the prefix used you cannot change
-directory to the root (``/``) and untar the file because the ``/home`` is root
-access only. To install a tar file you have downloaded into your new machine's
-``Downloads`` directory in your home directoty you would enter:
-
-.. code-block:: shell
-
-    $ cd /somewhere
-    $ tar --strip-components=3 -xjf \
-          $HOME/Downloads/rtems-4.11-sparc-rtems4.11-1.tar.bz2
-
-A build set tar file is created by adding ``--bset-tar-file`` option to the
-``sb-set-builder`` command::
-
-    $ ../source-builder/sb-set-builder --log=l-sparc.txt \

+The tar files are created with the full build prefix present and if you follow
