It could be reworded but you have to remember that Intel is supporting the
Yocto Project [1].
I recall that there is a link to the OE Layer Index [2] in the
documentation that has many BSP layers.
I do like how it is worded on the downloads page [3] under the BSP section,
though I feel reference to the OE Layer Index [2] should be put on this
page as well.
