There is still a great deal of confusion over where patches for the
various components of the poky repository should be sent. Attempt to
mitigate this by including a blurb in the poky README similar to what
other layers and repositories do.

+Where to Send Patches
+=====================
+
+As Poky is an integration repository, patches against the various components
+should be sent to their respective upstreams.
+
+bitbake:
+    bitbake-devel at lists.openembedded.org
+
+meta-yocto:
+    poky at yoctoproject.org
+
+Most everything else should be sent to the OpenEmbedded Core mailing list.
+If in doubt, check the oe-core git repository for the content you intend to
+modify. If it exists there, send the patches to:
+    openembedded-core at lists.openembedded.org
