I'd like to add my voice to the concern about requiring new public keys. I can appreciate the desire for security, but forcing new SSH keys accomplishes nothing of practical use. Quite the contrary; It induces a fair hardship of those of us with keys configured on many other systems. The idea of maintaining a second set of keys for Fedora (and again for any other projects that follow suit) is, I'd argue, unreasonably burdensome. -- Digimer E-Mail: digi...@alteeve.com Freenode handle: digimer Papers and Projects: http://alteeve.com Node Assassin: http://nodeassassin.org "At what point did we forget that the Space Shuttle was, essentially, a program that strapped human beings to an explosion and tried to stab through the sky with fire and math?" -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
