Stewards Meeting download (Mike Kinney)

1)          Issues with Mergify service. Pass CI and Mergify service. Waiting 
the result. See this issue, and ask Admin to refresh operation. Continue to 
monitor open CI.

2)          Code First Process (Leif started in the mailing list and got some 
feedback from the community) . Need approval from the community, then can 
follow the process. Use Edk2 staging branch for code development, validation, 
and spec ECR. Document this process in wiki page for the developer reference.

3)          Evaluation of code review process moving to github. Github web UI 
for code review, and email archive for community. Agreement to the stable and 
reliable service of Github Pull service. RFC will include the test repo for 
user evaluation.

4)          Line ending conversion. Dos line ending --> Linux line ending. 
Local setting enables auto conversion based on Windows OS. Linux line ending is 
the standard git defaulting.
