<answer>
<para>
- The term "Poky" is sometimes used to refer to the build system that the
- Yocto Project uses.
- The build system used in the Yocto project is referred to as the
- OpenEmbedded build system because "Poky" was derived from <ulink
- url='&OE_HOME_URL;'>OpenEmbedded</ulink>.
- Poky is a stable, smaller subset focused on the mobile environment.
- Development in the Yocto Project using Poky is closely tied to OpenEmbedded with
- features being merged regularly between the two for mutual benefit.
+ The term "Poky" refers to the specific reference build system that
+ the Yocto Project provides; Poky is based upon
+ <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#oe-core'>OE-Core</ulink>
+ and BitBake and thus the generic term used here for the build system is
+ the OpenEmbedded build system.
+ Development in the Yocto Project using Poky is closely tied to OpenEmbedded, with
+ changes always being merged to OE-Core or BitBake first before being pulled back
+ into Poky, benefiting both projects immediately.
For a fuller description of the term "Poky", see the
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#poky'>poky</ulink> term in the Yocto Project
Development Manual.
