If you would like to review what features OpenBMC supports, or add a 
feature to that list, see the following two reviews.  The first lists 
*major* OpenBMC features in the project README, and the second creates a 
new feature TOC in the docs repo.  The feature TOC attempts to list all 
features and point to their documentation.  Feel free to add review 
comments, and I will handle them.  But be sure to tell Kurt about new 
content.
