[yocto] Poky or oe-core instructions

Hi

I can see these instructions for setting up oe-core:

http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/OE-Core_Standalone_Setup

Which overlap with instructions here for Poky:

http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.0/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.html

Specifically, the part about initialising the build environment.

In the oe-core instructions we have:

git clone git://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core oe-core
cd oe-core
git clone git://git.openembedded.org/bitbake bitbake
git checkout fido
cd bitbake
git checkout 1.26

Whereas, wth Poky, we have:

git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
cd ~/poky
git checkout -b jethro origin/jethro

The questions are, then:

 - Which version of bitbake should one use? The one from oe-embedded, or the one from Poky?
 - Are the latest versions shown in the oe-embedded instructions correct? They are fido for oe-embedded, and 1.26 for bitbake.

Many thanks

Nathan
