* Explain that we test with a set of reference hardware rather than only
supporting hardware that we have (avoiding any implication that the
build system can't support other devices).
* Adjust the language so that it is OE-Core friendly, with a link to
the Development Manual for the definition of OE-Core.

There are a number of pre-production devices using the OpenEmbedded build system
and the Yocto Project team
announces them as soon as they are released.

Ensure that this section correctly and accurately describes how Poky and
OE relate to eachother currently.

<answer>
<para>
- The term "Poky" is sometimes used to refer to the build system that the
- Yocto Project uses.
- The build system used in the Yocto project is referred to as the
- OpenEmbedded build system because "Poky" was derived from <ulink
- url='&OE_HOME_URL;'>OpenEmbedded</ulink>.
- Poky is a stable, smaller subset focused on the mobile environment.
- Development in the Yocto Project using Poky is closely tied to OpenEmbedded with
- features being merged regularly between the two for mutual benefit.
+ The term "Poky" refers to the specific reference build system that
+ the Yocto Project provides; Poky is based upon
+ <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#oe-core'>OE-Core</ulink>
+ and BitBake and thus the generic term used here for the build system is
+ the OpenEmbedded build system.
+ Development in the Yocto Project using Poky is closely tied to OpenEmbedded, with
+ changes always being merged to OE-Core or BitBake first before being pulled back
+ into Poky, benefiting both projects immediately.
For a fuller description of the term "Poky", see the
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#poky'>poky</ulink> term in the Yocto Project
Development Manual.
