The bleeding edge FSO is in OE I believe.  Mickey told me that he 
doesn't even have write acess to the OM git repository.

But OE and OM sync regularly (done by Graeme I believe).

Probably not, but working out in advance whether you're going to build 
one or the other is a bit hard, and the SVN repositories are not 
structured such that you can easily checkout just the bits required for 
one image or another.

I expect framework-image would be referring a Bitbake recipe that Mickey 
is referring to.  Mickey (being an OE core developer) doesn't use the 
MokoMakefile.
