I've not used PGP much. Is this something that could use a short how-to posted somewhere ? Just want to make sure the solution that can scale and easy for people to follow.

Hello All,

For security response policy (for both the rpm/deb repo and the github) I was thinking
of keeping things simple and

Tell everybody that want to get the URL to the packages repository to *subscribe* to the
users DL.

Further I would like to see that some of our github admins and the maintainers of the packages
repo share their pgp fingerprint.

So in case of somebody wanting to report a security issue, they can just send it pgp encrypted
to all the admins. Avoiding a central security@ account that may go unnoticed.

Then we need to make sure there is always enough admins not on holiday, knowing how to fix issues
if/when then should occur.

Any thoughts?


Barry
