> BZ 1293 requests to move Network modules from MdeModulePkg to NetworkPkg.
> To keep the backword compatiblity, Network package level include DSC/FDF
> are introduced to be used in the platform DSC/FDF files. When Network
> modules are moved from MdeModulePkg to NetworkPkg, Network package level
> include DSC/FDF will be updated together. There is no impact on the platform
> DSC/FDF file.

> This patch set is to introduce network package level include DSC/FDF files.
> Bases on previous discussion and the existing usage case, build flag will be
> used to enable/disable the network features. PCD control feature way can be
> discussed later. And, to meet with the different usages, this patch set
> introduces the separate DSC for Defines/Pcds/Libraries/Components (Patch 2)
> , and also adds the package level combined DSC to include them all (Patch 3).
> If platform wants to use the flexible way to enable Network feature, it can
> use the separate DSCs. If the platform wants to directly enable Network
> feature, it can use the combined package DSC file.

> This patch set is to update NetworkPkg only. If there is no objection on this
> proposal, the following changes to platform DSC/FDF will be made and sent for
> review. By default, the platform DSC/FDF will use the combined DSC/FDF file.
> If the platform owner wants to use the flexible way to enable Network feature,
