The OE classic policy maybe, not on the meta-oe policy[1].

- From http://wiki.openembedded.org/index.php/Category:Policy I read:

http://wiki.openembedded.org/index.php/Commit_Patch_Message_Guidelines
http://wiki.openembedded.org/index.php/Commit_Policy
http://wiki.openembedded.org/index.php/Commit_log_example
http://wiki.openembedded.org/index.php/Styleguide
http://wiki.openembedded.org/index.php/Versioning_Policy

And none of those say PR = r0 is wanted behaviour. OTOH it doesn't say it's
unwanted either.

Koen

[1] There is no such thing yet, what I'm doing now is following the OE-core
policies where it makes sense. If someone wants to make a draft policy for
the meta-oe layers, please do so.
