Thanks, but I'm still confused.

Based on Lauren Post's email from 6/29 with the subject: "Freescale 
meta-freescale announcement of new layer",  I thought  meta-freescale 
was going to be hosted this year at

http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/yocto/meta-freescale.git/

Is this still going to be used?  Someone please explain the purpose for 
these two repos with the same name.

So we have 4 repos for QorIQ: i) meta-freescale on github; 
meta-freescale on freescale.com;  iii) meta-fsl-ppc on yoctoproject.org; 
iv) meta-fsl-arm on yoctoproject.org.

What happens now to meta-fsl-arm and meta-fsl-ppc? Are these dead for 
new QorIQ / Layerscape development?


And is there a mailing list to see when patches get applied to the 
meta-freescale repo on gitub.com/Freescale, or are you just expecting us 
to watch it via github?  You have always done such a great job letting 
us know when patches are applied to meta-fsl-arm.

BTW, the linux-qoriq kernel built with ls1021a_defconfig also failed to 
build in the same way as it did when being built with the linux-ls1 
recipe in meta-fsl-arm.  At this point, I'm guessing there is a tools 
issue, since I can build the same commit with the SDK1.8 (stable) 
toolchain and config.  I'll dig a little deeper, but please let me know 
if this is a known issue.
