Great!
We have been working with Facebook to try consolidate efforts, as
this OpenBMC project (https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc/) is not quite
the same* as Facebook's OpenBMC (https://github.com/facebook/openbmc/)
where Wedge100 can be found.
Regarding submitting code, OpenBMC's presence on github is primarily
for distribution and issue tracking. We're using Gerrit to manage
patches for OpenBMC-owned projects:

I'm one of the kernel/qemu hackers on the project so Yocto and its
layers aren't really my area of knowledge, but I expect we would have
to pull Facebook's layers into our openbmc/openbmc repo for you to
build on. I don't know if that's something we would do: Patrick and
Brad (now in To:) might be able to help you out here.
Cheers,
Andrew

* We're working primarily on enabling OpenPOWER machines with an open
source BMC. We happen to use the same SoC series (AST2400/AST2500) as
Facebook, so there's a lot of cross-over in u-boot/Linux but the
userspace is fairly different.
