   Packages are validated/verified in the following ways:
   
   1. Check that the detached signature matches the public signing key.
   2. Check that the SHA512(or others) matches the package.
   3. Optional check a signed binaries digital certificate issued on demand.
   
   We have some issues to consider:
   
   1. The Web of Trust is not dependable.
   2. We can leak signed release candidates.
   3. Most users don't verify completely.
   
   We need to discuss how we can make verification easy for any downstream 
consumer of ASF software.
