Actually I would hope for both ways. Some people don't carry around their GPG key (for good reasons) but change the ldap password (regularly) to be able to update stuff when needed. I guess both approaches would be useful for this specific case. And thanks for working on that -- I remember hearing from various people asking to disable their shell accounts over the years (especially in the discussions after the break-in back then ...), so it's nice to see this finally happening. :) > > Shouldn't the various teams handling the group take care of managing > > them?
