# 12 October 2021 - coreboot EFI working group ## Objective: Linux is expecting more and more to use EFI supplied interfaces (UEFI Boot Services in particular, even if many are stubbed out) so like it or not, we’re going to need to support these interfaces. How do we approach this without

Hi Ricardo, sorry for the late response, and that your project fell a bit by the wayside. I guess discussion configuration frameworks is more attractive to this community than testing frameworks (which also explains why we have ~3 config frameworks and only ~1 testing frameworks ;-) ) So yes,
