The intent is to work them up to where they are suitable to be submitted as patches to oe-core rather than the current .bbappend and related files. There's rather a lot of reading (which is good in the sense that I like actually have documentation, although that's definitely an area I need to improve on for the layers I've got in the works), and I haven't nearly got through it all yet, but I was hoping for pointers on the most important bits to read for prepping patches submission. Also, in the layers list I'll be asking about some build issues that I don't see with a manual bitbake, that look like missing preqs on a build server, unless the layer should be requesting installation of host files somewhere. Regards, Daniel
