+Virtualization support (meta-egvirt)
+======================================================
+
+meta-egvirt is the AGL Virtualization Expert Group (EG-VIRT) layer. It aims to
+design, test, implement and assess virtualization technologies (containers,
+hypervisors, system partitioners and other solutions) for AGL ARMv8 and Intel
+platforms.
+
+From the software side, VirtIO standards are considered as a common framework to
+provide virtualized devices. Developing standardized solutions reduces community
+fragmentation and increases freedom to choose hypervisor and SoC.
+
+From the hardware side, the primary target of such work is for the time being
+the Reference Hardware development platform which uses the Renesas R-Car H3 SoC
+(ARMv8). Other solutions will be added in future, depending on their
+availability and on the community interest.
