X-BeenThere: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.12 Precedence: list List-Id: Patches and discussion that advance bitbake development List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 08 Jul 2014 11:31:32 -0000 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII i ask since i'm teaching an OE/yocto course in a couple weeks, and i want to make the bitbake user manual part of the student kit, which is why i'm currently clawing my way through it, being pedantic and all and doing lots of (admittedly picky) touchups. case in point -- there are at least some BB variables that aren't listed in the glossary, such as PARALLEL_MAKE. i'm making a list of these, but i know that the yocto project also has a massive reference manual which includes a variable glossary. so where should i concentrate my efforts? personally, if something is BB-specific, i'd rather it go into the BB user manual. also, what's the timeframe for getting my patches into the repo? the course isn't til the week of jul 21-24 so there's lots of time for the patches to be applied, it would just be nice to know that they'll be incorporated by the time the course starts. thanks, back to proofreading ... rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
