We are currently using Dora (1.5.1) version of Poky. There aren't requirement for that, but we use because it's latest 'stable' release. I guess nothing is stable in this business though.

I'll check the backporting of those missing files unless it ends up backporting whole bunch of files. And maybe later upgrading to 1.6 once it's released.
