All,

Given the fact EdkShel= lPkg was deleted from edk2 repo one year ago (6caf954c1bf9), I propose to d= rop the support of EDK Shell in ShellPkg.

The EDK Shell support = is mainly in ShellPkg/Library/UefiShellLib. The library supports to build i= ndividual shell apps that can run in both UEFI Shell and EDK Shell environm= ent. EDK Shell environment support is what this RFC wants to remove.

Besides that, below co= mponents can also be removed:

&nbs= p; ShellP= kg/Include/Guid/ShellEnvironment2Ext.h

&nbs= p; ShellP= kg/Include/Protocol/

Jaben raised this idea= and Laszlo had no concern.

Thanks,

Ray
