To quote my email from earlier today:

That is the goal, yes. It was agreed that until we sort out the layer
tooling, there would be some code in meta-yocto which would be a copy of
various upstream parts which includes beagleboard. Over time I'm hoping
to see these pieces converge, then we when get the tooling right it will
become automated.

which I'd hardly call denial. There is a plan indicated above which we
agreed to and we intend to follow unless there is a problem?
