It is a real issue.
Because WIndows 10 compatibility is only signed with secure mode. Also
the new Windows secure settings and anti-malware tools do only work in
secure mode reliable.
Also some companies do have the need to enable secure boot.

And, nevertheless, no one knows what changes MS will do next time
without announcing it.

OpenAFS needs a substainable big contribution into the MS branch with
getting a MS signature and be a valid kernel driver for the next years.

To bad my gorup can=C2=B4t do that (20 people only) and so we do migrate =
away
from the AFS.
