      Yocto Project Compatible Version: 1.4


Acceptance Criteria:
   - Working towards and supporting the aims and objectives of the Yocto
Project. These include decreasing the fragmentation of embedded ecosystem and
focus around a common shared set of tools, formats and best practices. We
want to avoid multiple groups of people repeating the same work and have one
set of great tools rather than multiple tools with drawbacks.: Yes
   - Promoting the OpenEmbedded architecture, layer model, and BSP format.:  
Yes
   - Making visible contributions in the OpenEmbedded and component projects  
of
the Yocto Project.: Yes
   - Be a non-profit, or member of the Yocto Project working group, regardless
of organization size, or if the project's parent organization is an
open-source project.: Yes
   - If the project includes build system functionality, are BitBake and
OpenEmbedded-Core included as components?: No (explain below)
   - If present, can the directories containing BitBake and OpenEmbedded-Core
be clearly identified within the system and only contain those components?:
No (explain below)
   - Have all patches applied to BitBake and OpenEmbedded-Core (if present)
been submitted to the open source community?: Yes
   - Do all layers contain a README file which details the origin of the  
layer,
its maintainer, where to submit changes, and any dependencies or version
requirements?: Yes
   - Do all layers build without errors against OpenEmbedded-Core with only  
the
dependencies/requirements listed in their README file?: Yes
   - (For BSPs) Does the layer follow the format defined in the Yocto Project
Board Support Package (BSP) Developers Guide?: Yes
   - Are hardware support, configuration (distro) policy, and recipe metadata
separated into different layers which do not depend on each other?: Yes
   - Is a test report document included showing which combinations of layers,
recipes, and machines have been tested?: No (explain below)
   - If any item in the "Yocto Project Compatible Compliance Recommendations"
list is not true, is this documented in the testing report?: Yes
Recommendations:
   - Linux kernels are either based around LTSI kernel versions or a Yocto
Project kernel version.: No (explain below)
   - Everything builds successfully with the standard toolchain from OE-Core,
where the architecture is one supported by OE-Core as standard. This is to
ensure that your layers are compatible with OE-Core. It is not required that
the OE-Core toolchain be provided to customers or any downstream projects.:
Yes
Explanation:
We don't provide Bitbake or OE-Core code inside of project but meta-fsl-arm
is a layer that provides a BSP so it reuse Bitbake and OE-Core code.

We use:

* Freescale provided kernel (linux-imx)
* Mainline based kernel (linux-fslc)

Even tough meta-fsl-arm is maintained by me, it is a full Open Source project
and we get many contributions from community members; the project is not
company specific and in fact we don't have any company promotion content in
the layer itself.
