Hi all,
In addition to Greg's points, we have had some problems with the way some people submitting keys.
1. Please send your key fingerprints to <keys@kernel.org> (the former temporary address <keys@zytor.com> now forwards to this address.)
In particular, keys sent to any other address including privately to me or John will not be processed. Keys are being processed by John in batches to manage the workload.
2. Make sure your keys are uploaded to pgp.mit.edu (directly or indirectly) before you send them.
3. Make sure there is an encryption subkey associated with your key! If your key is a sign-only key you need an encryption key signed with your signing key; please give both fingerprints in the request.
4. If there is no signing path back to the kernel.org team people then please work with your fellow developers, co-workers etc. to obtain such a link. If nothing possible sooner, there will be key signings at KS and LCE which are less than two weeks away.
