What method should be used to add/modify new pkgs and distribute them

[Pranav Desai]

Hello All,

I have found a few different methods to add new pkgs to the build and also
to modify existing apps, like
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Application_Development_Crash_Course
talks about local overlay, I have tried this and works well enough for me,
but then this one talks about a different method using quilt ??
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/MokoMakefile#Developing_with_MokoMakefile

I dont understand the build process well enough, so I was wondering if
anyone has any suggestions as to what should be used for easy distribution.
Maybe some standard method that we should follow to add pkgs so that it can
be added/built easily by the developer and also by other users who can
easily add it to their build, even if its not in the official tree.

I would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks for your time.
