ARM’s EDK-II maintainer leaves ARM Ltd for Labapart.com

Today, Oliver Martin, the TianoCore EDK2 maintainer for the ARM packages for the last 4 years, is leaving ARM, this is his last week. Oliver didn’t give many details on his new project:

Unfortunately, it is still too early to share more details about my future product, so I created a quick website (and found a neutral name) last week-end to allow people to follow the adventure: http://labapart.com/ (can either be pronounced as “Lab apart” or “Lab à Part”).

Given his background with ARM and UEFI, I’ll be curious to see if this new product is at all related…

As I understand it, Leif Lindholm of ARM will take over as new EDK2 ARM role; he has been co-maintainer for the last few months, is experienced with open source, Linux, and has been working on UEFI for Linaro for the last few years.
