Hi all, I've been working with Shaojun recently on this donation and helped with the proposal.
I think this project is aligned with our goal and design rationale. This project is a very important complement to the Teaclave community - supporting more TEE language runtimes. Since the project is not open source yet, I also reviewed the design and code of the project with Shaojun and suggested he submit the code to prviate@teaclave for further feedback from the PPMC. To the community, please review the proposal, comment with suggestions, and your vote. Thanks! To Shaojun, please also submit the source to private@teaclave in case our PPMC needs further reviews. Thanks!
