This is correct, and you can verify it by doing a diff of the OE-Core meta/ 
subdirectory against Poky's meta/ - the only difference is that Poky does not 
include the sample configs (it provides its own in meta-yocto).

It's also worth noting that Poky uses its own distro (policy) configuration via 
meta-yocto, although this builds upon the default policy in OE-Core.
