Can we please split this document in a generic and board specific part? For now, while there are only very few boards, this can probably be done in a single document.
I think it makes harder for user to gasp the need information if it is splitted on many files; a single file has the same problem as the naming can not imply the board or reference he is looking at. I had this problem and took me some time to find m28 as a base documentation to my work on mx28evk.
We are not talking about many files - just two files would be relevant for a specific board: one with the common stuff, and one with the board specific stuff.
Copying the same stuff again and again and again is definitely a much bigger problem.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

I see pros and cons on this; since it is taking too much time and I do have a hard deadline to meet I'll leave to someone work on this later.
