It seems to me one should be able to find the linux-yocto kernel itself
under the Yocto Project Components from the basic search page. Currently
there is Kernel Tooling and BSPs, but there are times when the bug is
not BSP specific and is in the kernel itself, not the tooling. For this,
a hierarchy like the following might be preferable:

Yocto Project Components
  BSPs
    bsps
  Kernel
    linux-yocto
    configuration
    kernel-tooling

I am still not sure how best to deal with BSPs here and BSPs in Build
System & Metadata. I think We should pick one or the other as the
distinction between the two is non-obvious (actually I have no idea what
it would be).

Tom, Bruce: opinions on the above?


"Build System & Metadata" and "Yocto Metadata Layers" use different
naming schemes for the components in the various layers products. Some
use meta- others do not.
