This is great!
I would be happy if we went further and made all phosphor packages subtrees (changing the recipes to take files from "local" folders). That would make it soooo much easier to maintain! We'd get rid of those 'bump version' commits, and vendors wouldn't have to keep "patches to patches" in their repos.

Actually, that's what I'm now trying to do for our local fork.
