Good point, maintaining that centrally makes sense. However, currently the data on people.a.o isn't quite "easily accessible". (Can't mechanically fetch a fingerprint (let alone a key) given a username without html scraping or access to the source xml; and throwing the keys in an https svn directory does allow for that.) I suppose the "real" solution is to get people.a.o to allow to fetch the keys/fingerprints more easily. I'll start a discussion on site-dev@, and I'll post back here if a centralized solution is up before the hackathon. Thanks, Daniel
