The parent is http://cgit.openembedded.org/cgit.cgi/openembedded/log/packages/images/console-base-image.bb
we're talking about console-base-image here.

Sorry, I have no idea who the angstrom developers are or what recipes
are angstrom recipes (unless the name explicitly says so).
I thought we were all openembedded developers.
Anyway, the recipes created by me are openembedded recipes not
angstrom recipes (for what it is worth).
That is also why they live in openembedded/recipes (and not angstrom/recipes).

If you feel so picky about other people touching your recipes, I
suggest to move them to a separate directory or overlay, so people
know when they are breaking new ground.

And finally (and yes I know I am repeating myself): please do unto
others as you would have them do unto you.
If you do not give respect, don't complain of getting none back.

Just my eur 0.02
