They are the same. Or more appropriately, there is just one official meta-ti 
layer, it's just mirrored in several places. The one on yoctoproject.org[2] is 
considered the official mirror and that's what you should use. If you are 
subscribed to this list, you should have seen Koen posting 2 patches for 
review yesterday, which he has staged to his working copy on github[3] - 
that's the difference in 2 commits. They shouldn't have been pushed to the 
master branch though, until they are accepted...
