BoF: The Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded Organization
summary
BoF summarizes concrete changes and decisions: the Yocto Project funds RFC work and posts a funding URL, membership gains Qualcomm and exein, and LTS support is extended to four years with ongoing cost and maintenance expectations. Workflow policy stays conservative: patch-by-email remains primary submission channel (no multi-channel rollout without dedicated engineering). Build tooling focuses on reproducible containers — Crops container / container-generator for bitbake builds — and Pocky is a reference distro, not a shipping OS.
