<div style="direction: ltr;">I followed the process that was agreed upon in this list: I opened bugs to every platform maintainer with explicit details of what needed to be changed and waited a full month before making any further progress with the main patches
(adding a month to the completion time).</div>

I know it has been painful to get these changes in, and I am glad that <br>
you stuck with it. But that does not make it OK to simply break every <br>
platform in edk2-platforms/ and not take any responsibility whatsoever <br>
for fixing it. If it is such a trivial fix, why didn't you fix it yourself?<br>
