[oe] [RFC] meta-openembedded layer for yocto hosted on oe.org

[Frans Meulenbroeks]

Nice piece of work & a good plan but...

Who will be the owners/maintainers of the layers?
I maintain several multimedia recipes (mythtv with all that is dragged
in (which is a.o. a lot of perl stuff), various cd*  related recipes,
python-coherence and the python stuff it uses, mediatomb, and it seems
recently people seem to see me as the first line of contact if they
have musicpd issues), as well as some file sharing recipes.
Any idea on how I get them added, and how to deal with updates for these?

An alternate approach would be to let the stuff live in poky-extras.

Frans.

PS: personally I would have preferred it if console-image was in the
common part.I guess some other recipes will get fairly identical
recipes.
Maybe we should have a generic console-image and let each distro use
.bbappend or aminc to extend on it.
