at it :)

The Yocto Project is a community under the leadership of the Linux 
Foundation dedicated to making Linux on "embedded" platforms succeed by 
providing an integrated and consistent set of components including:

* Poky build system
* Kernel Tooling
* Pseudo
* Swabber
* ADT IDE plugins (Eclipse)
* Image Creator UI

as well as anything else that can further that objective.
