Re: [edk2] Why does build output appear in RELEASE_VS2012x86\X64\blah blah\DEBUG rather than OUTPUT ?

BUG dir is for things that are saved for debugging and OUTPUT is for things not needed for debug so it is just a generic policy in the tools. I think the original concept is you need to save things in DEBUG for future source level debugging and things in OUTPUT can be discarded. Thanks, A

Re: [edk2] [Bug 164] Add the build option "/D DISABLE_NEW_DEPRECATED_INTERFACES" in package DSC files

makes total sense to turn on DISABLE_DEPRECATED_INTERFACES on all the open source edk2 platform as soon as possible so all the open source code is following current best practices. Not to mention it would probably be a really good idea to give all the downstream folks a long lead time about the p
