Zeus support (required for use with Intel Inference Engine for Myriad X)

[radek-uavia]

I have an Up Core Plus with a Vision Plus X companion card for Myriad X compatibility. I would like to use it with Yocto.

I am trying to set up Intel Inference Engine to use the Myriad X. Inference Engine has a Yocto recipe only compatible with Zeus: https://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/recipe/106898/

However, it seems like meta-up-board only supports Sumo, with Warrior being in development.

Inference Engine might be non-trivial to backport to Sumo, as it relies on many new components only introduced in Zeus. It looks like porting meta-up-board to Zeus would be the easier route. Are there official plans for it? If not, I could attempt to do it myself. Would you accept contributions to upstream? Do you see any particular points or potential difficulties that I should pay attention to?
