For Fedora, package maintainers are responsible for uploading verified tar 
balls to the fedora build
system. I know I check the gpg signatures on the ones I upload, though these 
are not always available
as separate sig files.

It would be nice if we could upload/commit the .asc or .sig file, and have the 
rpmbuild script
automatically check the tar ball.
