I already have email out to my contacts at Packt, although Otavio might 
have better contacts.

Just so we are clear - the main issue with the title that I plan to 
discuss is the trademarked term "Yocto Project". I have also offered to 
read the book to look for trademark issues, which will give me the 
opportunity to advise them on whether Yocto Project or OpenEmbedded 
would be more appropriate in their treatment, as we can't really know 
that without seeing the content.
