I don't understand. What does Microsoft have to do with GPLv3 requirements?
- mjg59 15y agoIf it's possible for the user to use their own key then GPLv3 may permit you to ship signed code without the signing key - the user will just be able to sign modified versions themselves. Microsoft's current requirements include the ability for users to install their own keys.
