Re: [edk2-devel] BaseTools: Current status of BaseTools/Source/Python

["Yuwei Chen" <yuwei.chen@intel.com>]

Hi Ayush,

The migration is still working in progress. 
In order to ensure the normal use of users, the current bug fixes are still based on BaseTools in edk2. 
After all the migrations are completed, an official notification will be sent, and the developments and bug fixing works will be transferred to the edk2-basetools repo.

Thanks,
Christine (Yuwei)
