Re: Debian & the FSF Secure Boot petition



Dear d-i hackers, I've been contacted by Paul Wise about FSF campaign on
"secure boot" [1] (thanks Paul!). As observed by various commenters over
the net, it is indeed striking that no FOSS distros is in there. I plan
to contact the FSF asking that Debian is listed as an endorser of the
campaign.

As you are the Debian people working on our installer, I think it should
be done in agreement with you.

So, what do you think?  Do you see any reason why Debian should /not/
endorse such a campaign?  Are you aware of any other initiative on the
same vein that we should support to make our worries on that front
heard?

(Please Cc:-me on replies, as I'm not subscribed to -boot.
M-F-T header set accordingly.)

Many thanks in advance for your help,
Cheers.
