Sorry I sent it to the wrong list so now again:

What is the value - apart HOB's sake - in creating redundancies by copying
DESRCIPTION to SUMMARY? Why not use DESCRIPTION?


(this is a copy of the email I sent to the oe-devel ML):

Hi Andreas,

I did this because SUMMARY is a required field by the HOB UI. This was 
requested by Shane Wang on the oe-core ML:

http://lists.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2011-December/014600.html

For recipes which have short descriptions, there was little sense in 
summarizing them further, so I duplicated the DESCRIPTION field. Above you can 
also see an example (in the icu recipe) were I did summarize a long DESCRIPTION 
field.
