Subject: Re: [PATCH 0/6] implement standalone MM versions of the variable runtime drivers
Date: Thu, 10 Jan 2019 16:24:14 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <de297e9f-be64-91ed-8c7a-4122d4db0879@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190103182825.32231-1-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org>

We'd better have a bugzilla to track this change.
And since it will require platform change in platform dsc to add the new 
library mapping, we need add notes in 
https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/EDK-II-Release-Notes.


Thanks,
Star
