Okay. I have a basic knowledge of x86 assembly language. I will need to get
familiar with coding in OVMF.

I feel that with some assignments and resources (like a minor bug in some
OVMF code, or tutorial links) and guidance, a prospective mentee might
reach the level required by the project. I would like to know the views of
the people looking into the project.

Regards,
Aashaka
