[LEDE-DEV] [Frontpage] Stuff that cannot be found since switch to wiki software

[Alberto Bursi]

I just added a direct link to that page in the sidebar, called 
"Development".
The sidebar is a wiki page you can modify too as normal.
https://lede-project.org/sidebar

That link I added disappears if someone opens the "Documentation" link 
though, I think it's due to a sidebar plugin/feature that needs to 
re-cache the entries in it, I hope tmomas can explain how to deal with 
that properly. :)
