FWIW, I wrote a page on using DUET:

http://www.rodsbooks.com/bios2uefi/index.html

It's aimed at people who need to use it for practical purposes (say, to 
boot Windows on a BIOS-based computer from an over-2TiB hard disk) or 
who want to experiment with UEFI on older hardware. My page is of less 
interest if you want to get your feet wet with UEFI development.

One other project that's built atop DUET is the Clover Hackintosh boot 
loader:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/cloverefiboot/

I haven't followed it very closely. The last time I checked, there were 
binaries that made it relatively easy to install if you've got OS X up 
and running. I've heard of people using Clover to boot Windows or Linux 
without OS X, but installation is likely to be more awkward for such 
users. If you're interested in development, you could try hanging out on 
some Hackintosh forums, but I'm not sure which ones the Clover 
developers frequent.
