This is awesome Tim, thank you very much!

I moved it to https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Poky-Tiny as that is
more consistent with the other Project pages (which became apparent when
I saw the Projects/Poky-Tiny link on the main Projects page). Sorry for
the bad info above.

A couple points to consider.

1) You might want to add tiny-init as being a integral part of poky-tiny
2) You can also inherit from poky tiny using "include poky-tiny.conf"
rather than duplicating it wholesale. You can then update things like
the various DISTRO_LIBC_* items to adjust how libc is built, and
otherwise keep your tiny distribution definition small and make it
easier to maintain (so long as you want to continue to inherit changes
made to poky-tiny).

Again, thank you for doing this!
