That, and getting yourself whitelisted by a dev is gong to be a lower barrier than having to meet one in-person to have a key signed. That is unless devs just start signing keys for people they've never met (which honestly doesn't really bother me much as I don't put much faith in the WoT anyway), in which case it turns into a whitelist that only comrel can un-whitelist since I don't think you can revoke a signature. Plus signing emails is a pain if you don't use an MUA that has this feature, and the web-based ones which do aren't very good. -- Rich
