Thats even another point we currently don't really support: Application 
development. We need to have some kind of a SDK which makes application 
development easy. It should at least support developing EFL applications 
with accessing the FSO framework. The yocto project 
(http://www.yoctoproject.org/) provides plugins for Eclipse and Anjuta to 
develop applications based on a SDK build out of OpenEmbedded. Maybe we can 
use this in some way ...

If you want to dig into this, join us on IRC!
