[edk2-devel] RFC for Edk2-ToolEnv

[Michael D Kinney]

Hi Sean,

Thanks for the clarification that this PIP module has more than
just build and CI.  And over time, it may add more features to
help developers maintain their code and platforms.  How about

  edk2-tool-extensions

And we perhaps remove plural from the library repo

  edk2-tool-library

Do you think that python needs to be in the repo name so it
is obvious these are python components.  Or is the top level
Readme.md sufficient to make this obvious.  Perhaps:

  edk2-pytool-extensions
  edk2-pytool-library

Mike
