Hello Bibbet,
Thank you for the info. I appreciate it. FWIW, I was just curious what the
package was as I was poking around.
Speaking of opensource, here is a good video on UEFI and Android. Off
camera you can hear Dong Wei from HP speaking a few times. I just happened
to be listening to this one while digging around in the code.
