Hi Adam,

I am fine with bringing OpenChrome DDX under xorg namespace, but I think 
OpenChrome DRM and Mesa should stay put.
I remember back from Year 2016 and 2017 that I could not automatically package 
and upload OpenChrome DDX using /util/modular script due it not supporting 
OpenChrome DDX.
It took a while to realize why it was not working, and it turned out that it 
did not have a special entry specifically for OpenChrome in the script.
To resolve this, I looked at how the script worked for Nouveau and made 
customization for OpenChrome.
I am also fine with CI being activated.
I just hope this transition will go smoothly since I do not really like dealing 
with administrative issues.

Regards,
