And also mirrored in the /docs/ folder.
The high-level summary is that instead of using complicated fields,
an additive FFT was introduced that works with familiar Galois fields for the first time.
This is actually a huge new result that will change how Reed-Solomon codecs will be written.
My contribution is extending the ALTMAP approach from Jerasure
for 16-bit Galois fields out to 64 bytes to enable AVX2 speedups,
and marry it with the row parallelism introduced by ISA-L.

The idea is the brain-child of S.-J. Lin. He is a super bright guy who should be recognized more widely!
