>         Environment: GnuPG

> Me as a new Committer had to register public GnuPG key. Few parts of this 
> documentation were not maintained as it seems.
> http://maven.apache.org/developers/release/pmc-gpg-keys.html
> The DSA algorithm is nowadays considered not secure enough. Therefore RSA 
> should be chosen:
> {noformat}(1) DSA and Elgamal (default)
> Your selection? 1
> DSA keypair will have 1024 bits.{noformat}
> DSA Key size is nowadays too short even for RSA and should be 4096:
> {noformat}What keysize do you want? (2048) 2048
> Requested keysize is 2048 bits{noformat}
> Password was not entered. Here we have different opinions. From my PoV no 
> password might be ok for signature verification. The Committers use to keep 
> their keys in .gpg folder on their private laptops and they do not distribute 
> them in CI systems.
> {noformat}You need a Passphrase to protect your secret key.
> You don't want a passphrase - this is probably a *bad* idea!
> I will do it anyway.  You can change your passphrase at any time,
> using this program with the option "--edit-key".{noformat}
