Should that be MS, or what does MSF mean?

Maybe my concern is that none of the patches have a tested-by?

Probably would be easier to get a test coverage, e.g. for people like
me who do not even know how to self-compile Shim, how to setup user
space using the product and so forth.

I don't demand a release, if the changes have been accepted, but 17
patches do need to be tested.
