I have implemented OE (and Angstrom in more recent projects) in at
least 7 embedded projects. Overall, it has a been a great success
compared to any other method for getting Linux on embedded devices.
Sure there is occasional breakage, but in my experience, it has been
pretty rare -- especially for mainstream stuff. For what I do, the
availability of _lots_ of current package in my mind far outweighs the
occasional breakage. As a project, OE still has limited resources, so
I think our time is best spent moving things forward, and doing
autobuilds to keep the quality up. I recently added a bunch of disk
space to my build machine and hope to contribute more to the autobuild
effort.

Agreed!
