Hello Andrew,
Who would maintain this EFI back-end?
The EFI specification was originally developed by Intel, and is now
managed by the Unified EFI Forum[http://www.uefi.org/home/].
So, you don't know who would maintain the EFI back-end that you're
proposing for gcc?
I feel sorry that I misunderstand your question. After finishing
this project,I will like to maintain it.
As others have suggested, there may be severe technical problems
implementing gcc->efi. There seem to be changes needed to the
front end. This might work if you could get a group to support
the work, but it may be too much for one person in a summer.
I don't want to dissuade you, but it's important to be realistic.
I am a follower of open source.Even I can't finish the project in this
summer,I still want to contribute .
thanks
