IMHO, No it doesn't. What you should ensure is that the key used for
the signing is both committed to the SVN, uploaded to pgp.mit.edu (and
other if possible) and that the finger print is published on the
official website.

Cross-signing of keys should happen in person, where identity can be
ensured. If there are people you know really well, a phone call where
the other part can recognize your voice, preferably being the one
calling you up on a well-known phone number, to transfer the
fingerprint info...
