That's awesome!

It would be great if Peter could post formal R-b's or A-b's in response
to (some of) the patches on edk2-devel.

Alternatively, you could mention Peter's review somewhere in the commit
messages, in natural language.

Again, not a "hard requirement" from my side, I'd just really appreciate it.

OK! 2-clause BSDL is fine, per "Readme.md":

"""
4. It is preferred that contributions are submitted using the same
   copyright license as the base project. When that is not possible,
   then contributions using the following licenses can be accepted:
   * BSD (2-clause): http://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause
"""

Just please use the SPDX identifier format for the 2-clause BSDL, and
also list the (partially) covered subdirs in "# License Details", in the
Readme.md file.

I'm relieved to hear this :)

Thanks!
