for example, the output from verifying your signature is:
[-- PGP output follows (current time: Tue Feb 26 18:08:18 2002) --]
23 sources found
forking into background...
gpg: Signature made Tue Feb 26 06:02:11 2002 EST using DSA key ID 7B9F4700
gpg: Good signature from "David T-G <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"
gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature!
gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.
gpg: Fingerprint: D8F0 A85C 1B88 1EBD 5155 8606 19BE EE09 7B9F 4700
[-- End of PGP output --]
[-- The following data is signed --]
