[yocto] Layer input

[Jerrod Peach]

Scott,

   - Distro Layer
   - I'm unclear on what <name> is.  Is that supposed to be <distro>?
       <recipe>?  It probably shouldn't just be <name>, should it?
   - Software Layer
      - Should COPYING.MIT just be COPYING to be more generically
      applicable?
      - conf/<layer_name>.conf should be just layer.conf, right?
   - BSP Layer
      - COPYING.MIT file again.
      - machine/<name>.conf should probably be machine/<machine*>.conf.
       You can probably drop the non-asterisk version, since an
asterisk implies,
      "There might be more stuff, there might not."
      - recipes-bsp/formfactor shouldn't also have another formfactor
      directory, should it?  Or is the "files" directory in 1.4 replaced with
      another formfactor-named directory?  Also, <name> should be
<machine> again.
      - What's everything from recipes-core down?  I can buy recipes-kernel
      being in a bsp, but are any other directories really necessary?

Kind regards,

Jerrod
