Need to be able to generate personal key pairs within the distributed OS

How do you get this part? Can you explain more?

"In essence, unless Canonical provides a signing service for that specific code, that code has been Tivoized by the definition of the secure boot system. So, unless that signing service exists, the code must not be GPLv3."

Previous -- Mbck not signed in.

Also, forgot: Both Canonical and EFF are right, but EFF
apparently looks only at the use case of distributing a full
release. The Canonical approach allows finer-grain releases
AND allows changes to signed items to be made by the end-
user. It looks like that scenario (changes by end users) is
not considered by EFF's note.
