   There are a few features that need a newer version of NASM. We will be updating the version of NASM.

We are investigating on automation.If there is any workflow that is inefficient or anything that we can do to increase the efficiency, please give us that feedback.

*       Google summer code (sponsored internship program run by google). Need some mentors to mentor the interns. Tianocore open source needs to apply. Application deadline Feb 19th. We need to develop interesting ideas for summer projects. Nate will start an offline thread to discuss ideas for projects. Couple of people have expressed some interest in becoming mentors.
   Community Action: If you are interested in either mentoring or have a project idea, please send an email to (nathaniel.l.desimone at intel.com<mailto:nathaniel.l.desimone at intel.com>).
