Hi Liming,

I agree with the need for both packages. We should wait at least another d=
ay for any additional feedback on the package name GenericBoardPkg. That na=
me may give the impression the package can generically be used on various b=
oards whereas the intent here is a package containing common or supporting =
board functionality. An alternative name to consider is BoardSupportPkg.

As a reminder, ensure the separation of content follows 8.1 (or update the=
 document if necessary):

e_6_advanced_feature_selection/

Thanks,

Michael
