Looks like all the distributions are going to be signed with the MS key.
In which case, would it not be worth clubbing together to have a root key manager, who can take the place of MS in signing packages?

Then in this case, why are all the distro's having to shell out to get a licence key from Microsoft? I know of a lot of small distro's that dont produce any income, and pay for their webspace out of their own pocket. Why are we going to force them to purchase a key to allow their distro to run on a Windows 8 box?
If they do want secure boot then it needs to be signed by _someone_, and none of the Linux distributors have been willing to step forward and be that someone.
Unless you're on ARM, in which case you're screwed.
