Great Dom, looks OK to me.
I saw you finished intel: ue-intel-2021.10.0/install/modulefiles/Core
For GNU, we need to rename environment from ue-gcc-12.2.0 to ue-gcc-11.2.0 and setup meta-modules. Do you want me to do it?

GNU build is still going, and it is gcc-12.2.0 - the 11.2.0 version is only needed as backend for Intel; standalone we can use 12.2.0. I am taking care of the GNU build, so no worries. Almost finished.
