After an exchange of messages with Richard, Saul and John Willis (he

announce that i started start a fork from his layer and with Florin
Sarbu will prepare a layer for RaspberryPi to work upon poky.
Why a fork? This is a bsp layer so it should be sufficiently generic to
work both with Poky and OE, it is really undesirable that there should
be more than one m-rpi layers in circulation.
There are issues that cannot be solved with just one layer. A distro is a
workaround but still. More about this, rpi layer will be included in yocto
project repos as  Richard plans so it makes sense to have a yocto specific
layer. It could be a discussion here about using a core layer and above
that some distro specific layers but in my opinion this would be a little
too complicated for this. Right now i use a distro file which inherits poky
distro in order to BBMASK some bbappends which we don't have in poky. Clear
now?
Not really, no. I can't believe there is a good reason to have two layers for
this. Can you please be more clear why we can't just have one?

For example parsing libav and rpi-zram-service will fail. We don't have libav and we don't have systemd yet in poky.
