If you're going to do key-signing can you all update to "strong" keys please (ie something that's at least 2048 bits in size and uses a hash from the SHA-2 family; there are quite a few 1024D/SHA-1 keys in use it seems). If you're not sure how to generate one the instructions at:
http://keyring.debian.org/creating-key.html
might be helpful.
Good advice.
But that reference gives instructions for a new key, rather than migrating an existing key to 2048 bits SHA2.
This ref might help.

Thanks again.
