Notes from the Yocto Birds of a Feather Session

April 12, 2011

  • Poky is the trademark sanitized name based on the Japanese treat Pocky
  • 1.0 will be the stable release… while the master branch is for development
  • 1.01 (or such) will probably be released to work with Fedora 15.
  • There are some packages missing from Yocto that are in OE today. Yocto is still maturing.
  • Why did they choose the boards they did? They asked the question how long does it take to port a bsp to the internal system? Because they are commercially available.
  • Yocto is similar to Mozilla in that it is an umbrella project.
