   - New FESCo to come
 - Not much the board can do ATM
* Open Floor / Your suggestion here
 - Is any part of the UEFI debate a Board decision?
 - If the tradeoff is freedom vs market share, sounds like it is a Board issue.
 - But there is a significant technical component as well and we don't want to
   meddle at a level that is within FESCo's purview.
