Hi David,
thank you very much, it helps a lot :) I'm familiar with gpg and the
gpg-plugin, but I was not with the Apache way to manage the KEYS.
My public Apache key is already on public keyserver:

pub   1024D/19FEA27D 2010-03-24
uid                  Simone Tripodi (simonetripodi) <[email protected]>
sub   4096g/C002CC79 2010-03-24

Thanks for your help!
Simo
