Thank you for the proposal!
    I think that the bitbake license is perfect, GNU GPL v2 or any other
later version.
anyway:
* attached is a newer version that try to autocomplete the "-c" option
with the more common tasks (it's not possible to do listtasks, as the
package will be typed later...)(I hope I've listed all the more common ones)
* about use of the cache, I tried to use also the autocompletion one (it
reduce of ~30% the time), but I then removed as it's not so accurate,
expecially because autocompletion is useful for developers, where .bb
files can change a lot... can bitbake cache be better in this regard?
