What about storing them in oci layers at zothub.io?
I guess i'm not entirely opposed to that, but then i need an oci client to download the thing. You can call me old, but 'wget' works pretty well.
One thought I had was to create a puzzleos project called 'firmware-bins' and then have releases of it or something like that. that way github would host whatever tarball we put up there.

Let's do that.
a thought, we are producing these ovmf files in bootkit now: https://github.com/project-machine/bootkit and bootkit's intent is basically to be a set of bins like that.
Just to mention here. I attempted a bump to jammy in PR #35. The end result is that it really seems like the jammy firmwares are slower.
The are the 4M variant compared to 2M variant on focal.
stubby's test harness uses some "firmwares" files that come from OVMF and from shim-signed packages. These can be collected from an ubuntu system using './test/collect-firmwares'.
Using different firmware files over time adds variability to the test harness, and exposes it to bugs like in LP: #1986692.
It would be good to publish the firmware files in one way or another, so that we can use consistent versions.
