Why, justify.  Yes matrix needs to be different than the distro 
definition on arago but As you point out below the only people using 
Matrix are Arago and Koen in Angstrom.  I think this comes down to not 
wanting the word "arago" occurring in the Angstrom layer stack.

meta-ti should be about using TI chips.  Matrix and other demo programs 
we put together for our demo distro are not essential to using TI chips.

So I would put this in a layer that we maintain because it would seem strange to me to have to go through another set of maintainers to update the SRCREV of the package we are developing.  Particularly if no one is using it.

If we see that happening a lot a there is a request from a group of people to have this then we could push it lower, but if we are the only ones using it and who care about it then I don't see the reason to move this lower in the layer stack.
