It was discussed DOZENS of times on maillist. Sending bb recipe (or asking for writing such recipe) to shr-devel maillist is in majority enough to have your app in SHR and FSO repositiories, which is enough, as I don't know other active and supported OpenEmbedded based distro here which isn't based on SHR or Om2009. And if documentation isn't good enough: improve it, instead of making something wrong by design! > Lasts words: > I wouldn't spend too much time when bringing up a SHOWROOM on tricky, > technical stuff.

Some work on that is started in shr-installer project.
