   Now that GNU Privacy Guard is available to do everything PGP does under a
   free license, is tehre any reason for the developers keys to be in contrib
   instead of main? Is there something here I'm missing?

Yes:

2.1.3. The contrib section
--------------------------

     Every package in "contrib" must comply with the DFSG.

     Examples of packages which would be included in "contrib" are
        * free packages which require "contrib", "non-free", or "non-US"
          packages or packages which are not in our archive at all for
          compilation or execution,

Note that gnupg is in non-US.
