Since all the committee get all the mails anyway automatically, I
don't think forged messages are likely to be a problem - you'd spot
them because you'd get them.  But, if you still want signatures, Guy
could create a temporary key and you could phone him up at his phone
number (which you must have on record somewhere), or he could put the
new public key in his filespace.
