I’m not sure I’d recommend anyone who isn’t very experienced with Yocto to 
setup a new project on _master_, as it changes frequently.

For a product which is in active development and will be released after the 
next LTS then there’s a case to be made for tracking the latest releases until 
a LTS, and then sticking with that.  No point starting on an LTS now if you’re 
not shipping for another 18 months.

If the project is hobbyist or experimental, then the latest releases are ideal.
