while i'm working my thru the docs, i want to verify that yocto is

layers on top, right?
This is correct, and you can verify it by doing a diff of the OE-Core meta/
subdirectory against Poky's meta/ - the only difference is that Poky does not
include the sample configs (it provides its own in meta-yocto).
Have you actually done such a comparison? I just compared them like this:

openembedded-core:
commit 50dc8bfbac42b9a9b52a2f7d0568740c41790c13
Author: Richard Purdie <richard.pur...@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: Fri Mar 9 14:14:04 2012 +0800
These are the up-to-date master branches, as of 2012-03-11 12:40 GMT
Tons of changes, many minor/cosmetic, but lots of substantial changes in
recipes, etc. Maybe the Poky policy is to match oe-core (follow?), but at least
today, it's pretty far out of sync (10 days is forever in net-time)
It's also worth noting that Poky uses its own distro (policy) configuration via
meta-yocto, although this builds upon the default policy in OE-Core.
Cheers,
Paul
