That's "mea culpa". I should have made it clearer in my previous emails that
changing the name is a non-issue. Also that we are very interested in
feedback from other CoCo flavors. In this regard, we've reached out to ARM
and RISC-V folks. Hopefully, they help us improve the doc and we can add
them as maintainers. Whenever we have a v2, I'd like to CC people from CSP
sector (Oracle, etc.) as well.
Thanks,
Carlos
