Interesting; it would have been nice to have known about this a little
earlier, some people have been working on stuff built on top of the AMD
one for a while.

You mention two things that I wonder how they interact:

  a) TPMs in the future at a higher ring
  b) Making (almost) unmodified guests

What interface do you expect the guest to see from the TPM - would it
look like an existing TPM hardware interface or would you need some
changes?
