During the SFF, only such feature sets may be merged whose review
completed *before* the SFF. In other words, for a feature series, only
the merging part may slip into the SFF; the review part must not.
(Again, I'm just explaining the current SFF definition. If we want to
change the SFF definition, that's a different discussion -- I'm not
particularly vested in the current one, I had just suggested it
following the pattern that QEMU had set. The edk2 community is free to
choose different definitions.)
Thanks!
