For many years, the Members Area of UEFI.org has been managed by the Kavi Workspace/Higher Logic community management tool.  Recently (September 2021) this application was changed to the Causeway product.

Causeway is a popular community management tool used by other standards organizations such as PCI-SIG and the DMTF.  Causeway offers document management, calendaring, and discussion forums capabilities.  The change from Kavi to Causeway will require changes on your part to maintain login capability for your account.

Note that this transition does not affect the Mantis application that UEFI.org uses for ticket management.

Here is the official press release from the UEFI Forum describing how to update your account:

Hello UEFI Members, 
 
UEFI has completed the changes to the Members area of members.uefi.org.  As announced previously, we have moved from the KAVI/Higher Logic Platform to the Causeway Platform.  Please note that, effective immediately, you will need to reactivate your account on members.uefi.org.  
 
Here are a few other things to note: 
 
New Credentials: You must establish your new credentials at https://members.uefi.org/user/reset [members.uefi.org].  Your user name will be your email address registered with UEFI.   
Member Groups:  Member Groups will not change. You will still be a member of your same groups. 
Calendars: When you log into Causeway for the first time, please confirm that you are subscribed to your group calendars, so you will continue to receive meeting notifications and changes, https://members.uefi.org/calendar/subscribe
 
After [members.uefi.org] you have reestablished your new credentials at https://members.uefi.org/user/reset [members.uefi.org], please take the time to login to the new Members area and look at your various groups, including group calendars, documents, etc.  Please also take this time to update your profile to ensure it is up to date.   
 
If you have any issues or need assistance, please notify us immediately at support@uefi.org.

Thank you for your patience during this migration, and thanks for your support of UEFI!

Best Regards,

I followed the procedures here, and everything worked fine for me.  If you don't have access to the UEFI Member Pages today, but are interested in gaining access, I did a write-up of how to request access here:  https://www.basicinputoutput.com/2019/05/uefiorg-members-pages.html
