I'd say yes.

The policy is here: http://wiki.openembedded.net/index.php/Commit_Policy

It says:
 * It's fine to fix a recipe you don't maintain, but its polite to talk to
   any else actively maintaining that recipe. Try to contact the maintainer
   or, if no maintainer is listed, send a note to the OE developer mailing list

but apparently some people feel the rules do not apply to them
(although they bitch others if they do deviate from the rules)

Welcome to OE.Your contribution is really appreciated.
And we all make mistakes and we all were in your situation at some
point in time.
You'll learn it (and feel free to ask advice here or on irc)

And most of all: have fun!
