Following some interesting points I got during a discussion we had
(offline), I have some questions for multiple projects. One of the
topics is "Secure Boot".

Apparently I missed the point with my hardware and systems where Secure
Boot practically became mandatory and default. Which was a long time
ago as I learned today.

As you know or don't know I'm working towards a system based on GuixSD
where one of its scenarios and configurations is to be used from an USB
disk (think 'TAILS' big sister).
I'm about to ask the secure-os mailinglist about how they handle the
Secure Boot (ie: Microsoft) case with their systems.
For us (as in us->Guix) I pose the questions:
- has someone tried this?
- would it technically be possible given the (un/likely) case we get
  Microsoft to cooperate (leaving aside the techno-ethical points for
  this question)?
