Re: [edk2-devel] RFC for Edk2-ToolEnv

Hi Sean,

Does the PIP module here support both local platform builds and 
CI builds?

I am looking at the name of the repo and trying to align with
the edk2-tools-library repo name so it is obvious the two repos
are related.  Maybe focus on the CI part for the name and we 
reuse the CI features to simplify local builds.

	edk2-tools-ci

Finalizing the name is the only open I am aware of.

Thanks,

Mike
