Hi

Yes, my intention is to focus on AArch32 as I'm more familiar with that
architecture.

Thanks for the insight into the current state. As I understand, some parts of
AArch64 and AArch32 EL2 modes share a some functionality. For example,
* VGIC - compatible
* Exception Routing - different interface but same function
* Pagetable format - implemented with LPAE
* Generic Timer - different interface but same function

Are these assumptions correct? I hope I didn't simplify it to much.

And also: does it make sense to work with your code? Are you planing to commit
the changes before May?

Would someone mentor this project?

Best regards,
Merten
