This repository contains several meta's.
Contains recipes of which we want a newer / different version (well at the time of writing the recipe at least). e.g libevent, conmann and wpa-supplicant live here, since this exact version is preferred; other versions are known to cause problems. The priority of this layer is high.
Provides the recipes to boot machines manufactured / shipped by victronenergy. Typically bootloader + kernel. It shouldn't contain any "configuration", iow another distro should be able to reuse it.
Contains recipes for software not written by us, but also not in openembedded. This can also overlaps in time. For example daemontools was not available in danny, but is added in fido. Recipes from bsp layers which do not want to include completely should also end up here.
Contains our distro specific tweaks for openembedded. Typically bbappends go here to make configuration choices and the like.
Recipes for software provided by Victron Energy. It should not contain bbappends. The intention is that this layer can be added to an existing oe setup.
NOTE: don't put recipes in this meta for projects which source code is not (fully) publicly available, since it will cause build failures for people not having access to them!
