edk2$ find . -name Contributions.txt | wc -l 38 Ouch! (At least they are all identical.) I found the MdePackage instance (google brought me there), and didn't look to see if there were more.... These should definitely be replaced with a single top-level instance. Any modules that require different content can add a specialized one, but since they are all identical, that is a current requirement. Once the content of changes is agreed upon, I'll update my patch to do this as well.
