Hey Tim,

>From my understanding the SPDM support in EDK2 is still very new and
not yet (at least last time I looked) actually connected to anything.

Supporting a range of SPDM transports is important. It's not just MCTP
and DOE, but the storage (ATA, SCSI and NVMe) protocols as well that
should be supported.

It would be great if any abstraction takes into account a range of
transport methods, at least allowing them to be implemented later. I'm
currently slowly working towards DOE support [1], but if you are able
to design a general SPDM abstraction that would be great and I would
be happy to help where I can, although I'm not an EDK2 expert.
