[yocto] [OE-core] Yocto Project Status WW12’18

[Burton, Ross]

Monthly seems like a good enough cadence to give everyone time to review

autobuilder, and eventually reach master.  Too fast and AUH will be sending
nagging mails for a patch which is shortly being merged.

Can we stop bikeshedding now? :)
