Hi Karl,

good question, I must admit I have just seen this today and the software
seems to work the same as the one used by the OpenBSD[1] folks, which
also no longer use OpenPGP for signing packages.

[1] I have played with signify and minisign in the past and there are no options
to certify a pub key or keyring, which we know from how GnuPG works.

I guess they can sign the pub key file(s) between each other dev and then have
to publish those results in a safe place?!

Regards
Stefan
