Secure Boot — Fedora, RHEL, and shim upstream maintenance: government involvement or lack thereof

2026-08-03T15:29:11+00:00

You probably remember when I said some things about Secure Boot in June of 2014. I said there’d be more along those lines, and there is.

So there’s another statement about that here.

I’m going to try to remember to post a message like this once per month or so. If I miss one, keep an eye out, but maybe don’t get terribly suspicious unless I miss several in a row.

Note that there are parts of this chain I’m not a part of, and obviously linux distributions I’m not involved in that support Secure Boot. I encourage other maintainers to offer similar statements for their respective involvement.
