Sean,

Thank you for making edk2 better :)

I have replied to your github discussion with a bunch of my ideas, as both a feature package maintainer and platform maintainer.
(https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/discussions/3721#discussioncomment-4596465)

I'm willing to discuss these things further as long as it's not at *checks edk2 tools & CI meeting time* 1am (email, chat, 1-on-1, you name it).
I am also interested in getting QemuOpenBoardPkg into your platform CI initiative as it's a simple platform that only requires QEMU to boot (plus a copy of edk2-platforms and edk2 to build).
