I disagree and I feel quite strongly about this. OE-Core is not a distro. The whole idea was that OE-Core should build with sane defaults without any distro set. This is a dummy placeholder value and it really does mean to say that no distro is set. We did put a value into the DISTRO_VERSION field so you could tell what was being used but again its a placeholder. So in my view "nodistro" is clearer about what is meant.
