RPMC.
     *   Open: Verify with Liming if this feature is still in plan for August 
stable tag
[Liming] I confirm with the feature owner Wang, Jian. There is no plan to 
enable it in Q3 stable tag. I will remove it from the planning.

Thanks
Liming

  1.  Provide a pcd to disable SHA1 support
  2.  ShellPkg: add HttpDynamicCommand


Stewards Meeting download (Mike Kinney)

  1.  License usage - few files in the EDK2 repository are not using the 
default license (BSD 2 clause + patent). Stewards are looking into those files 
that are not using the default license and working on explicitly calling them 
out in the readme file so that the downstream consumers are aware of those 
files and helping them to consume those files appropriately.
  2.  Covered community opens on previously discussed topics:

     *   GitHub Pull Request based Code Review Process: Status: Mike plans to 
update RFC with the feedback. Community action: Community feedback is needed 
before the service can go live. Mike will send the revised RFC in the next week 
or two for the vote on these options - 1) Yes, I will use the GitHub pull 
request, 2) No, I won’t use it, 3) It doesn’t make any difference.
     *   Line ending conversion - Community Request: we don’t have much 
resources. We have a set of tasks (including setting up of fork of EDK2, 
converting CRLF to LF etc..) everyone in the downstream can identify issues. We 
need volunteers to perform the task. Send an email to Mike Kinney 
<michael.d.kin...@intel.com<mailto:michael.d.kin...@intel.com>>
     *   Open: Feedback from the community regarding the Git commit message RFC 
posted to the rfc mailing list.

*   Action: Felix to converse in the mail list, there is already an ongoing 
discussion.

     *   Open from Felix: Code base fragmentation.

        *   I noticed that some of the generic features are getting committed 
to a platform specific packages, which leads to multiple implementations of the 
same functionality, which, in turn, makes edk2 codebase less coherent. We, as a 
community, should think about ways to reduce that. A couple of examples: 
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-platforms/tree/master/Features/Intel, 
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/tree/master/ArmPlatformPkg/Drivers/NorFlashDxe

        *   Discussion around adding new features / components and where should 
it land in the repo.

        *   Discussed review process for Bugzilla. Bugzilla has email 
conversations on code reviews. Owner of the bug needs to summarize. Lack of 
community engagement in discussing the feature entered in Bugzilla.

        *   Action: how to use Bugzilla for TianoCore? Liming to start with a 
wiki page to train the community.


Status on Community Opens from June:

  *   Package movement for RISC-V - Mike Kinney has put up package rules/specs 
etc.. Action from stewards to provide update within next week. Status: Work in 
progress.
  *   New RFC - base tools as a Python PIP module (update from Mike). Community 
Action: Reminder, RFC is on the mailing list, please review the RFC. Status: 
repository has been created (Mike). Expect some communication (in the upcoming 
weeks) around how to change to set up the developer environment. Community to 
evaluate the use of base tools.



Acknowledgments:
Community Action: Please send Soumya if you like to acknowledge anyone from the 
community, if anyone helped you close bugs or reviewed code etc..Soumya will 
post those acknowledgements on the community page.


Regards,
Soumya
