Mauro,

This list is a good resource for getting EDK II questions answered, and for 
reporting problems.
There is a good "signal to noise ratio" and a very diverse set of knowledgeable 
developers.

The EDK II tree on www.tianocore.org is similar to the "bleeding edge" tip of 
most open-source projects in that full production-level testing may not have 
been done.  The production-level releases are under the UDK2010, etc., banner.

Reporting issues, like you did, and testing help, such as you offered, go a 
very long way in helping us improve the utility and quality of EDK II.

Thank you,
Daryl McDaniel

Hi Daryl,

Nice to hear that.

Should I keep posting problems here in these list? I can also help
testing the fixes.

Thanks again,
