Since we are using a layer-based approach, people do not
need to rely upon the Yocto Project team to add support
for new boards.

<para>
There are two main ways to get a board supported in the Yocto Project;
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para>Send the Yocto Project team information on the board
and if the team does not have it yet they will consider adding it.</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>Send the Yocto Project team the BitBake recipes if you have them.
</para></listitem>
</itemizedlist>
Support for an additional board is added by creating a BSP layer for it.
For more information on how to create a BSP layer, see the
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_BSP_URL;'>Yocto Project Board Support Package (BSP) Developer's Guide</ulink>.

<para>
Usually, if the board is not completely exotic, adding support in
the Yocto Project is fairly straightforward.
