Hi In recent discussions there seems to be a lot of interest in moving towards more layered structure in OE where we discussed machine layers and arch based layers. There certainly are advantages to this approach as discussed in other threads on mailing list I think poky has already achieved that to a certain extent and has made metadata changes needed for such a structure. There are other polishing to metadata which is beneficial in general like recipe licenses, gcc runtime demystification etc. I would like to suggest that we adopt this structure and use Poky as core layer which we should always maintain in coherence and add the extra machines,architectures and recipes as additional layers around the base layer.
This will also help us to scale the project and reduce the to and fro in merges as well as communities at large will benefit by seamless flow of patches and other contributions. This will of course need a lot of work and I wanted to bring to everyone to know if this would be a good approach moving forward.
