Hi Scott, thanks for this. Looking forward to seeing it.

Andrew, Mike - for what it's worth, I'm happy to do the mechanics here
unless there are any objections.

Oh, and it's usually a good idea to cc maintainers of existing
packages you intend to work on. For MdeModulePkg, this is
 Feng Tian <[email protected]>
 Star Zeng <[email protected]> (from Maintainers.txt),
and if creating any new packages (as you are), probably cc the
stewards as well (we don't always spot all emails that hit the list)
 Andrew Fish <[email protected]>
 Michael D Kinney <[email protected]>
 myself.

Yes, we could do with adding this to the edk2-staging master branch
README.

Best Regards,

Leif
