Announcement: APT Secure

[Isaac Jones <ijones@syntaxpolice.org>]

Greetings :)

"APT Secure" is the working name of a project to add to APT the
ability to verify the authenticity of Debian packages.  It
accomplishes this via a chain of trust which is initiated by the
package maintainers and ends on the installing machine.

This is a call to the community to help test and audit this patch to
APT, and to eventually participate in the policy discussion about the
patch.

Please see http://monk.debian.net/apt-secure/ for more information and
to download Debian packages.

Isaac & Colin
