+    <title>Reference: Features</title>
+
+    <para>'Features' provide a mechanism for working out which packages
+        should be included in the generated images. Distributions can
+        select which features they want to support through the
+        <glossterm linkend='var-DISTRO_FEATURES'><link
+        linkend='var-DISTRO_FEATURES'>DISTRO_FEATURES</link></glossterm>
+        variable which is set in the distribution configuration file
+        (poky.conf for Poky).  Machine features are set in the
+        <glossterm linkend='var-MACHINE_FEATURES'><link
+        linkend='var-MACHINE_FEATURES'>MACHINE_FEATURES</link></glossterm>
+        variable which is set in the machine configuration file and
+        specifies which hardware features a given machine has.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>These two variables are combined to work out which kernel modules,
+        utilities and other packages to include. A given distribution can 
+        support a selected subset of features so some machine features might not
+        be included if the distribution itself doesn't support them.
