Announcing the edk2-platforms master branch

Announcing the edk2-platforms master branch

[Leif Lindholm]

Hi all,

A little over two years ago, I set up OpenPlatformPkg [1] as a way to
prototype a single source tree for multiple platforms, built against
edk2.

Last year, we finalised the rules for how such a tree could be
integrated into the edk2-platforms [2] repository, and I have now
completed the migration. edk2-platforms master branch is now live
(although there will be some lag before it becomes the _default_
branch of the repository).

Binary-only components have moved to edk2-non-osi [3]. At the same
time edk2-non-osi has been updated with a directory structure aligned
with edk2-platforms master - as well as had explicit documentation
added regarding how licenses work in that tree.

As of this moment, OpenPlatformPkg becomes a read-only historical
document.

Mike has agreed to share overall maintainership of edk2-platforms with
me, at least until we start breaking down responsibility a bit more.

Happy hacking!

Leif,

Thanks for all the work on this!

I have updated the default branch on edk2-platforms to 
be the master branch.
