Now that the repo is out there and writable for every OE committer (if I
didn't mess up gitolite), the easiest way to get started is to use this
script:

http://gitorious.org/angstrom/angstrom-setup-scripts/commits/yoctoproject

That will pull all the needed git repositories and assemble a bblayers.conf.

As being discussed on the oe-members list, we desperately need a
workable solution to deal with multiple git repos for layers. Personally
I like Michaels approach of using a flat config file with a git uri for
each layer, but I'm open to other solutions.

I'm now going to read up on license checksumming, RP is going to enable
the killswitch in yocto soon.

regards,

Koen
