The public keys only apply to the BMC where the firmware image is being 
installed on and not are not intended to be shared with other BMCs / 
hosts. "Shareable files can be stored on one host and used on several 
others" (http://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_3.0/fhs/ch02.html).


On another note, I'll be adding the gerrit links to the main epic 
(https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc/issues/356) as changes start getting 
submitted for anyone that wants to leave comments or follow along. The 
first ones are:

https://gerrit.openbmc-project.xyz/#/c/8949/ - Add image signing 
framework and open keys
https://gerrit.openbmc-project.xyz/#/c/9025/ - BMC Digital Signature 
documentation
