Question - Verilog-Ethernet vs 1G/2.5G Ethernet Subsystem

I was wondering if this project could be used as a replacement for the Ethernet subsystem provided by Xilinx in Vivado. The Subsystem holds a MAC, Ethernet Buffer and PCS/PMA module. The MAC is not free (~$600), so I am looking for alternate ways to get the same functionality.
Thanks!

Best option at the moment is to use the MAC from this repo in combination with the (free-of-charge) Xilinx 1G PCS/PMA core. See the VCU108 or VCU118 example designs for how to wire this up. Eventually I'll probably have a 1G PCS/PMA in this repo as well, but I don't have a timeline for that at the moment.

I'll give it a try and drop my results here.
