Hi All,

As per the platform HSC meeting on 10/25/2021 at 8AM PST, the following was
agreed by a majority of participants on the call as well as past
participants and multiple distro reviewers:

- The M-mode requirements as in the current spec will be removed from
the 2022 OS-A base and server platforms
- The platform spec will continue to mandate all the SBI requirements
are as currently listed in the document
- OS-A base and server platforms will continue to comply with the RVA22U
and RVA22S profiles
- The requirement to comply with the RVM20M64 profile will be removed
from the OS-A base and server platforms
What about Section 2.1.8. Software and ABIs?
Section 2.1.8 about Software and ABIs will continue to stay the same
as currently for both the OS-A base and server platforms.

If there are still any concerns from anyone regarding the decisions above,
please reach out to Mark Himelstein (markhimelstein@...) directly.
