i think it would be nice to have a policy for that. i am going to send a
couple of recipes for new components, and it would be good to know what's
the agreed 'policy' for .inc file. in fact, it's not even clear to me why
have .inc file is easier to carry different version in distro layers. well
it's just a 'large' recipe to carry over..
