No opinion on this.

I would certainly support this kind of for musl.

But I don't think that moving uClibc out of OE Core is OK with the next 
release. We do use it and there are probably some users too, I think it's 
better to have a longer transition period for this kind of change, like make 
the next release support three libcs and only move uClibc to meta-oe in a 
subsequent release. This would give everyone some time to evaluate 
alternatives rather than forcing to make choices right at the OE Core update 
when usually there are lots of other things that need to be fixed.

No opinion on this.
