I am no sure what 'aspect' of OE-Core you mean. If you mean the
six-monthly releases, then you are reading my emails all wrong -- I am a
firm believer.

Regarding experimental releases -- I am not interested in them much
myself, but with meta-clutter, we could, of course, have negative
priority recipes for any interim developer snapshots, if that is what
people need. But what I am looking for most are uptodate recipes for
*stable* releases of clutter more or less as they happen.

Just so we are clear, I am not trying to wrench clutter out of your
control. For all I care, set up meta-clutter on g.yp.o, and put the
current official maintainer of the clutter packages in oe-core in
charge, but I don't think we can get a usable clutter support without a
dedicated layer in the long run.
