Right, but if you want us to switch from "we just mirror upstream ipxe" to "we have our own ipxe" then it's probably better to start with that, rather than by submitting a pullreq that can't be applied until we switch our ipxe workflow. Do we really need this for 2.4, or can we wait and sort this out afterwards? It feels a bit late in the release cycle to start doing this kind of thing to me. -- PMM
