    <thetext>Add a new target that will consist of a cut-down Build Appliance.
The objective is to have a virtualized development environment to use it with the Eclipse Bitbake Commander feature/component.

Build Appliance Mini will consist of:

1. A Linux virtual machine to be run under VMware Player.
2. The entire development environment needed by poky/bitbake
3. ssh/scp access

This is a basically a stripped down Build Appliance, without pre-installed poky repo and without Hob. Of course, X11 stack is also not needed.

This will decrease the size and requirements of the virtual machine, all while increasing the performance of the YP development environment (bitbake + poky).</thetext>
