Contributions to OpenEmbedded Reference Platform Build
Here you will find out more about the OpenEmbedded Reference Platform Build layers and how/where to send patches.
Layers
OE-core (Base layer)
About
This is the main collaboration point when working on OpenEmbedded projects and is part of the core recipes. The goal of this layer is to have just enough recipes to build a basic system, this means keeping it as small as possible.
Contribute
Submit all patches through the OpenEmbedded Core Mailing list
http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
Meta-rpb (Distro)
About
This is a very small layer where the distro configurations live. Currently it houses both Reference Platform Build and Wayland Reference Platform Builds.

Meta-oe

This layer houses many useful, but unmaintained recipes. Since reduction in recipes to the core, meta-oe was created for everything else. There are currently approximately 650 recipes in this layer.

Meta-96Boards

This support layer is managed by Linaro and intended for boards that do not have their own board support layer. Currently used for the HiKey Consumer edition board, and eventually the Bubblegum-96 board. If a vendor does not support their own layer, it can be added to this layer
