[meta-openembedded][RFC] meta-multimedia layer

[Koen Kooi]

Hi,

During FOSDEM Paul Eggleton and I discussed moving a few multimedia recipes (libav, xbmc, faac, faad, etc) out of meta-oe into a new meta-multimedia layer hosted in the meta-openembedded git repo. This would allow e.g. meta-baryon to drop a number of recipes while avoiding the need to drag in the complete meta-oe layer.

Thoughts?

regards,

Koen

Yes please!

Would this layer be open to patches to enable 
LICENSE_FLAGS/INCOMPATIBLE_LICENSE ?

Cheers,
Joshua

yes idea is fine. Will it then host all multimedia related stuff ? or
just whats in meta-oe is being moved.

This is a good idea, we should get a good proposal so it's clear what's 
moving where and how.  Currently this should start with meta-oe and we 
can then evaluate if anything in oe-core should move there.

This is similar to the starting point we have with gnome, but we needed 
to keep some of that in core.

Thanks for the effort.

Sau!
