I have already submitted it to layer index, but the git repository is
still point to the github.

http://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/branch/master/layer/meta-installer/

Does the metadata updates clone it from github to yocto
if it is accepted? I think I should ask Michael for help.

The OE guy (Armin) seems interested to meta-installer
(previously I have added/submitted 40+ recipes to OE for
the preparation of meta-instaler public). If OE could accept
meta-installer, it is very convenience to maintain all of them
in one place.
