I want to know before going on a trip where this trip is suggested to
end. Of course, after knowing, we should really start with the first
steps. And these are, as you say:
- Fix apt-utils
- Sign md5sum-files instead of the concatenated binaries (to allow for
  reomte signing)
- Change policy

And don't forget: Start to sign as soon as the toolchain is ready for
it.
