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.
The extra steps from dkg about the transition document etc aren't quite so relevant if you can get most of your signatures again by going to an ALUG pubmeet. ;)
