Interesting. But who is OpenDevicePartnership?

Looking at the members on the repository this seems to be a Microsoft project?

Can one even do UEFI firmware projects without at least keeping Microsoft in the loop?

As far as I remmeber, they control the issuance of keys for bootloaders. Or is this project supposed to do away with that?

Microsoft even has their own Rust project for UEFI.

Patina is a significant evolution of Mu.

Mu has some bits & pieces of Rust code and EDKII is still the upstream for Mu.

Patina is 100% Rust DXE Core implemented from spec.

Are you somehow related to either projects? You seem to have a good understanding of both pieces :)
