I'd like to make a proposal here. It's clear to me that the case for this work is not clear to much of this community. That's fair.

In the Linux world, people do their work in a different repo, evaluate it and, if it looks good, offer it up to the mainstream. That's how we got 9p in: initially, starting in 1998, the pushback was unceasing. By 2007, 9p was in and I doubt it will ever go away; even microsoft uses it now. Subrata, would you be comfortable with just forking coreboot to github.com while we do this work and evaluate it? At some point, if it's something we think the larger community might benefit from, we can come back.
