Hi Isaac,

Please see feedback inline below.

Thanks,

> +* CooperCityRvp
> +* JunctionCity
> +
> +There are corresponding binaries in edk2-non-

The above sentence has a somewhat antagonistic tone. Please modify the prose to be a little more impartial. Perhaps something like "The naming of board directories is unaffiliated with naming used in code."

> +Within code, the key is "TypeBoardName" which shows up in code in key
> ways:

Please remove the redundant "in code" from the above sentence. Perhaps something like "Within code, the key is "TypeBoardName" which shows up in the following principal forms:"

> +* EFI_PLATFORM_TYPE enum, e.g. TypeJunctionCity
> +* UBA Protocol, e.g. gEfiPlatformTypeJunctionCityProtocolGuid

You need two new lines here. Otherwise, the sentence beginning with " To facilitate future convention..." gets rendered as part of the "UBA Protocol" bullet point.

> +To facilitate future convention, "BoardPortTemplate" is used to increase
> consistency.

> +## Board Porting Steps

> feature is designed to make it easy to support many boards in a single binary.
> +For the purposes of this example, "MyBoard" is the board name in code and

The numbing of the steps listed below is off. It goes 1, 2, 5

> +1. Copy WhitleyOpenBoardPkg/BoardPortTemplate to
> +WhitleyOpenBoardPkg/MyBoard 2. Rename
> +WhitleyOpenBoardPkg/MyBoard/Uba/TypeBoardPortTemplate to
> +WhitleyOpenBoardPkg/MyBoard/Uba/TypeMyBoard
> +5. Search and replace BoardPortTemplate with MyBoard in
> WhitleyOpenBoardPkg/MyBoard.  Do not search and replace at a higher
> scope as you will break the template examples.
> +6. Add a new EFI_PLATFORM_TYPE enum in edk2-
> platforms\Silicon\Intel\WhitleySiliconPkg\Include\PlatformInfoTypes.h, e.g.
> +```
> +TypeMyBoard, // 0x80
> +```
> +Please update the comment for TypeBoardPortTemplate to match the new
> maximum used, e.g.
> +```
> +TypeBoardPortTemplate               // 0x81
> +```
> +7. Update the PcdBoardId for your board in the
> WhitleyOpenBoardPkg/MyBoard/PlatformPkg.dsc, e.g.
> +```
> +gPlatformTokenSpaceGuid.PcdBoardId|0x80 # TypeMyBoard ``` 8. Update
> +each INF in WhitleyOpenBoardPkg/MyBoard/Uba with new GUID filename
> 9.
> +Add a DXE UBA protocol GUID to WhitleyOpenBoardPkg/PlatformPkg.dec,
> +*with a new GUID* ```
> +gEfiPlatformTypeMyBoardProtocolGuid       = { 0xa68228c5, 0xc00f, 0x4d9a, {
> 0x8d, 0xed, 0xb9, 0x6b, 0x9e, 0xef, 0xab, 0xca } }
> +```
> +10. Add your board to the switch statement in BoardInitDxeDriverEntry

> +```

> +      Status = gBS->InstallProtocolInterface (

> +        NULL
> +        );
> +      ASSERT_EFI_ERROR (Status);
> +      break;
> +```
> +11. Add the gEfiPlatformTypeMyBoardProtocolGuid to the
> +WhitleyOpenBoardPkg/Uba/BoardInit/Dxe/BoardInitDxe.inf
> +12. Add a build option to edk2-platforms/Platform/Intel/build.cfg.  e.g.
> +```
> +MyBoard = WhitleyOpenBoardPkg/MyBoard/build_config.cfg
> +```
> +13. At this point, you can build from edk2-platforms/Platform/Intel, e.g.
> +```
> +build_bios.py -p MyBoard -t VS2015x86 -d ``` 14. At this point,

> +* GPIO
> +* VR, IMON
> +* SKU info
