Interesting. But who is OpenDevicePartnership?
Looking at the members on the repository this seems to be a Microsoft project?
Can one even do UEFI firmware projects without at least keeping Microsoft in the loop?
As far as I remmeber, they control the issuance of keys for bootloaders. Or is this project supposed to do away with that?
Microsoft even has their own Rust project for UEFI.
https://microsoft.github.io/mu/
Already today you can remove the Microsoft keys from most mein board's UEFI and enroll your own. You can perfectly make your own UEFI implementation without Microsoft.
