I'm quite aware of that, but since mickey pointed out before they really
dont want to get swamped by images. So I thought of this as a middle ground.
And setting through local.conf/distro is of course a good idea, but it
creates some issues if you want certain packages to get included in one
image but not the other.

If i've missed something, please point it out so I can hide in shame


So....as I said...create your own image bbfile. You shouldn't commit
it, of course, unless it has a general purpose of some kind. You can
commit it locally (as long as you don't push) or you can commit it to
your own local branch to keep track of it.

Perhaps you should explain what exactly you're trying to do.
