Whiteboard

[pwlars 2012.02.14] This will probably not make the 2012.02 release since that's supposed to happen in the next couple of days, but the current plan is for Ryan/Dave to meet next week to get uefi installed on the boards and sort out the booting process. Once that's done we can drop the changes into LAVA and it will be complete.
[pwlars 2012.02.23] Current plan is for Ryan and Dave to sort this out tomorrow, moving to 2012.03
[fboudra, 2012-03-26] re-target to 2012.04 milestone.
[fboudra, 2012-04-27] Re-target to 2012.05 milestone.
