Laszlo,

Regarding your comments about disliking the verbosity of the markdown 
table/html table for build status both in Core Ci and now these Platform CI 
readme files.

As a learning experience I updated the OvmfPkg readme to use reStructuredText 
instead of markdown.  Not sure if I like RST but it does allow the links to not 
be in html and supports directives so you can push all that text to end of the 
file.

Do you like this enough that I should rework all three readmes and we should 
discuss if RST should be used instead of MD for the edk2 project?

RST version: 
https://github.com/spbrogan/edk2/blob/PlatformAndCoreCIForOvmfArmVirtEmulatorPackages_v8/OvmfPkg/README.rst
MD version: 
https://github.com/spbrogan/edk2/blob/PlatformAndCoreCIForOvmfArmVirtEmulatorPackages_v7/OvmfPkg/README-pytools.md


I think the rendered RST looks really good, and is perfectly usable as plaintext too. AFAICT, we are not losing out on anything the v7 version provided, right? If not, I am in favor of going with RST in this case, which I suppose implies that I am in favor of permitting it in EDK2 for purposes such as this one.

That does not necessarily imply that all markdown should be replaced with RST. I'm perfectly happy letting them co-exist, and I don't have an opinion on whether one should be recommended over the other, or which that should have to be.

This is really the last remaining issue for the PlatformCI patchset.


Agreed. This is converging really nicely.
