Um, as a member of the ASWG, this is the first I've heard of this discussion.
And I do attend the meetings very regularly.  Please send me an issue number
off-line because I'm not finding it in the current issue list.

Secondly, if this is being discussed within the ASWG, please refer to the UEFI
member agreements about disclosing information prior to it being approved by
the forum; there are limits to such disclosures, and a public mailing list may
be well past those limits.
