May be we (as community, who want to help) can split out UKSM in "several patches" in independent git repo. For allowing maintainers to review this. Is it morally correct? UKSM code licensed under GPL and as i think we can feel free for port and adopt code (with indicating the author) Please, fix me if i mistake or miss something.
