It is not just about hardware. Some Cloud providers doesn’t support UEFI boot at the moment - so said various voices from Cloud WG. And some data center insist ob BIOS boot because of whatever, presumably management infrastructure. So, the hardware does or does not support UEFI, doesn’t matter in these cases. > > > So you are saying that 3rd party vendors ( cloud providers ) now dictate and decide the direction of the project? > Nobody dictates anything. The provider has its good reasons, whatever it is. And Fedora has its own reasons. As I said, it’s just our decision: how many users do we want to leave behind. Or can we think of a good solution and find the strength to organize it so that we don't lose any users or as few as possible. It's our problem, not anyone else's. Or: how much do we care about our users? And how connected do we feel to our users? _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
