Acceptance criteria of barebox bootloader in OE-Core

Acceptance criteria of barebox bootloader in OE-Core

[Eric Bénard]

Hi,

I have some recipes building barebox bootloader http://barebox.org/
which I'm using in custom BSP and in meta-fsl-arm :
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-fsl-arm/tree/recipes-bsp/barebox

This recipe needs a little bit of polish but before doing that I wanted
to know if it could be integrated in oe-core like is actually u-boot ?
http://cgit.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/tree/meta/recipes-bsp/u-boot

If yes, I'll provide a patch with a working barebox for at least
qemuarm.

This would allow BSP to share at least the barebox.inc of oe-core/Yocto.

Thanks
Eric

I support the addition of barebox as this is a nice and popular
bootloader; I see no problem in supporting one more alternative and
this reduces the duplication and overlapping work.
