Currently siggen uses the format "<filename>.<taskname>" for referencing tasks
whilst runqueue uses "<filename>:<taskname>". This converts to use ":" as the
separator everywhere.
This is an API breaking change since the cache is affected, as are siginfo files
and any custom signature handlers such as those in OE-Core.
Ultimately this will let us clean up and the accessor functions from runqueue,
removing all the ".rsplit(".", 1)[0]" type code currently all over the place.
Once a standard is used everwhere we can update the code over time to be more
optimal.

Bitbake
=======
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run
efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints.
One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software
stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website:
http://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated
html version at the Yocto Project website:

Please refer to
http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded
for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended
for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org)
but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send
the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current
branch, type:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
