And if you really are size constrained with today's configuration, please enable thumb2, otherwise you will get bitten on random compiler updates down the road.
Unfortunately the platforms I have that are space constrained do not support any such but again those probably won't ever run any regular distro neither.
We certainly should not mandate EFI support in U-Boot :-(
I don't think anyone mandates EFI support. I merely asked for reasoning why it was explicitly disabled - with a preference not to have it disabled, but that's by no means a mandate :).
I think it's a nice idea if you have to use EFI/grub on your system though. A great way to get past the legacy problem.
Anyway, the video looks interesting - are the slides available somewhere? I'd really like to see how this is presented.
The slides should be on the ELC web site, yes:

They're presented using keynote on a Mac. I haven't found anything remotely as comfortable for creating presentations anywhere else :).
