Unfortunately, I think a lot of people are confused about this, which is natural as much of this separation is still new to people. There is: http://www.yoctoproject.org/community/mailing-lists Which needs to be updated to better reflect the oe-core aspect I think. And: http://openembedded.org/index.php/Mailing_lists This accurately describes oe-core (and other oe specific lists). > > It seems to me there is a whole bunch of discussion happening on the > poky list about making changes that that would effect everyone using > openembedded-core. Do we have two lists for discussion of stuff that > effect the oe-core? No. As I understand it, things that go into poky.git/meta and things that go into oe-core should be sent to the openembedded-core list. Patch series for poky.git should be isolated in such a way so that they do not include changes to meta (oe-core) and other areas at the same time.
