+meta-agl-telematics-demo, the layer for the Telematics DEMO platform of Automotive Grade Linux
+=================================================================================
+
+The layer 'meta-agl-telematics-demo' provides a reference/demo platform and
+applications for the AGL Distribution.
+
+AGL is creating an automotive specific Linux distribution (AGL UCB) that unifies
+the software that has been written in a number of places already,
+such as GENIVI and Tizen IVI.
+
+The AGL community appreciates feedback, ideas, suggestion, bugs and
+documentation just as much as code. Please join the irc conversation
+at the #automotive channel on irc.freenode.net and our mailing list.
+
+For infomation for subscribing to the mailing list

+Layer Dependencies
+------------------
+
+* Base dependencies [agl-telematics-demo]:
+
+URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
+
+URI: https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/AGL/meta-agl
+
+URI: https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/AGL/meta-agl-devel
+
+URI: git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded
+
+Specifically out of meta-openembedded these sub-layers are used:
+
+ - meta-openembedded/meta-oe
+ - meta-openembedded/meta-multimedia
+ - meta-openembedded/meta-efl
+ - meta-openembedded/meta-networking
+ - meta-openembedded/meta-python
+ - meta-openembedded/meta-ruby
+
+* Hardware dependencies:
+
+The Raspberry Pi 3 board depends in addition on:
+
+URI: http://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-raspberrypi
+
+
+Packagegroups
+-------------
+
+AGL Telematics Demo Platform's package group design:
+
+* packagegroup-agl-telematics-demo-platform
+
+This is for generating the image 'agl-telematics-demo-platform' which is a full
+image for the Telematics profile of the AGL distro.
+
+Following meta-agl's design of packagegroups, ``agl-telematics-demo-platform.bb``
+contains only ``packagegroup-agl-telematics-demo-platform``.
+
+``packagegroup-agl-telematics-demo-platform`` has one packagegroup in it,
+``packagegroup-agl-profile-telematics``, and the packages required for the DEMO
+applications.
+
+Supported Machines
+------------------
+
+At the moment only the Raspberry Pi 3 has been tested, but the other
+AGL supported platforms (see `README-AGL.md` in meta-agl layer), should work.
+
+Supported Target of bitbake
+------------------------
+
+* `agl-telematics-demo-platform` is the full image of the AGL Telematics
+Demo Platform with all applications
