I'd just like to note that losing the CC:, Reviewed-by:, etc is a big
loss. Gerrit auto-adds Rb's, github PR's do not (I'd guess there's a
way to pull that off with github actions, but I haven't looked). It'll
be a mess if I have to go through online GH PR backlogs just to find
who to CC/add-to-review. It kills the decentralized bit off of git too
:)

It is sad that we're moving to PRs after I finally got a nice and
sane(ish!) email workflow (openfw.io + b4). Otherwise, no objections,
it's better than edk2.git's half-email half-PR frankenprocess.
I'd guess this change only encompasses edk2.git? How about the other
repos? Any timeline for those?
