Layer index wiki page

Hi all,

I've created a wiki page to provide a central index of all layers that can be used with oe-core:

http://www.openembedded.org/index.php/LayerIndex

This is by no means complete - I started with the list from Cliff's changelog and added a few on from there. I was also looking around for a page with the Ångström setup instructions that specifically mentions being oe-core based but I couldn't find it (Koen?) I'm still thinking about how to best represent layer repos that contain multiple layers too (e.g. meta-oe, meta-smartphone, etc.).

Comments / updates / additions welcome.

Cheers,
Paul

At the moment it's only mentioned in http://git.angstrom-distribution.org/cgi-bin/cgit.cgi/meta-angstrom/tree/README since the stock angstrom images don't build due to missing recipes (e.g. GNOME), so it's a bit hackers only. You do have a point that it should be clearly documented before it can be considered ready :)

regards,

Koen

Looks good. I've added meta-yocto to the weekly changelog report:

Please be careful with this one as "poky" is currently a fusion of bitbake, oe-core and the meta-yocto pieces and those meta-yocto pieces don't yet have their own repository. There will therefore be duplicate commit information until meta-yocto splits into its own repository.

Yocto is working on layer tools and I've been holding doing anything with meta-yocto until they're ready. If there is pressure to split this out now though, we can speed up that process at some extra admin cost for me to maintain them...
