Hello Ilias, hello Vincent,
I am currently reviewing EBBR v2.4.0-pre1.
I guess a compliant software present all four of the GUIDs so that a
client looking for a certain compliance level will hit a match.
Currently U-Boot only presents the
EFI_CONFORMANCE_PROFILE_EBBR_2_1_GUID. We should evaluate what is
missing with respect to the other levels.
What I am missing in the EBBR spec is a table with the requirements
indicating in which version each requirement was added.
Testing would also become easier if each requirement were numbered.
Best regards
Heinrich
