Well, as I just mentioned in my reply to Paul I have produced a document describing OE-core here: http://www.openembedded.org/index.php/OpenEmbedded-Core I don't know that it explicitly describes all the repositories but it does give some idea of the motivations. > I ask because I'm struggling to get OE running on my h1940 (using > openembedded), but I have a feeling that this may be the wrong repository to > use ... but I just don't know ... OE-dev provides support for h1940, yes, but I wouldn't expect that to be maintained in future. However, read on... > I'm also not sure which ones are being worked on going forward (as I > would like to submit changes once I get things working, but again don't > know which repository is the right one). So most of the new development should happen either in OE-core or some layer on top. Hopefully I will soon be able to release a layer called "meta- handheld" that I have been working on which will provide machine support for h1940 amongst other handheld devices. If you're using OE-dev now that's OK, if you have any patches against OE-dev they will be easy to re-apply to meta- handheld or whereever is appropriate.
