From a brief discussion with the team here one issue is the low backwards 
compatibility 
between models from different Tensorflow versions. I don't know how fast 
upstream is moving,
but there may be demand to support more than one version per YP version. That's 
not 
unsurmountable of course, but I thought I would mention it.

meta-renesas-ai has a MIT license btw if it’s a help in creating something more 
generic
and shared.

Regards

Steve
