  Questions/Comments:
  Is the status of this, and work items correct for this cycle?  -- Daviey
+ 
+ No.  EVM is now upstream.  There is room for trusted boot work,
+ especially as a demonstrable, better, and more flexible alternative to
+ the uefi-based 'secure boot'.  But this list is not right.  Particularly
+ for a useful server solution, I'm thinking it might be better to wait
+ until after LTS.  I will be taking some time to meet with the involved
+ people, however, to get a clearer idea of current status.  --Serge
