Hello Przemyslaw,

Thank you for wanting to work at getting this code mainlined.  I know there has
been quite a bit of interest from various people outside Intel.

I know you've got a pending commit to update some pieces of this design.  Since
none of the code has been submitted since the design was originally written, do
we need anyone to re-read it and see if anything has changed in the rest of the
codebase that needs design updates?

What did you have in mind for maintainer structure on this?  I'd ideally like to
see someone outside of Intel be a co-maintainer with you since:

  - This code was initially written as experimental Intel-only repository
    without any community feedback and
  - The current code hasn't been touched in 2 years and best practices have
    likely changed.
  - You're not currently a maintainer on any other repositories.

Once the repository is set up, Andrew G can enable CI on it fairly quickly.
