[yocto] <rant>the current yocto FAQ is pretty much valueless</rant>

[Jeff Osier-Mixon]

Hi all - looks like it has been a busy morning while I wasn't looking!

I was the last one to touch the FAQ on the wiki, and I can attest that
its goal is not to be an end-all be-all technical FAQ, of the how-do-I
variety or any other. It should have more correct language in it, to
which I will attend directly.

We DO have an interactive technical FAQ planned along with a full
upgrade on the website sometime in August. Meanwhile, we can certainly
use that FAQ for some actual questions that come up frequently, like
adding a package. I can add that immediately, and will point toward
Robert's FAQ page as well.

Koen quoth:
>         'Do you mean "yocto" or do you mean "poky"?'.
>
> The reaction to that can go a few ways and the follow up actions I recommend:
>
> 1) People don't get the question and/or don't know the difference between 'yocto' and 'poky'. Pretend you have a nosebleed and walk away, fast
> 2) People say "Right, I meant the buildsystem, not the umbrella project" or "No, I really meant 'yocto' as the umbrella project". Continue the conversation.
> 3) People say "Koen put you up to this, didn't he?". You're most likely talking to Dave or Saul, buy them lunch :)
