This sounds fairly vague and potentially overlapping with some existing
repositories.  Can we get designs on this to understand the scope and
applicability to other systems?  It is quite possible that pieces of
this already exist elsewhere in the codebase or could be extended with
minimal effort to fit your needs.

We certainly have precidence for <company>-ipmi-oem repositories, but I
think there is a desire to reduce them and try to make the IPMI handlers
more common.  I don't know if anyone is actively leading that effort
though, so in keeping with the existing precidence it seems like we
should create this repository for you.
