Description Joshua Lock 2017-11-08 22:32:40 UTC 
There are two versions of the beaglebone machine definition available, the one in meta-yocto-bsp provides a reference configuration, whilst a more feature-rich version is available in the official TI BSP layer meta-ti.

In order to make it easier to include layers supporting both the reference and complete BSPs in a users configuration and to reduce confusion we should rename the beaglebone machine in meta-yocto-bsp.

Possible names: beaglebone-ref, beaglebone-mainline, beaglebone-yocto

This will require a layer bump, docs changes and notification to meta-ti so that they can drop their code which warns against including meta-yocto-bsp

Note, also requires autobuilder configuration changes.
