Initially I was not confortable with this approach (of creating another 
linux recipe only to cover one board), but I understood that the 
'official' has been maintained by community, and has been growing 
faster. So, I like/want to support the community kernel.

I'm not sure regarding the name "linux-wandboard". Isn't 'wandboard' the 
board name? What would be the wandboard's linux provider name?

It makes me think that the same approach should be used for imx6sabrelite.

Is there a (better) external git repository for sabre lite kernel?

Thanks a lot, Jonh, for starting this.
