Yes, looks like Brian used a key not in the Debian keyring.

debian-lts-announce only allows mails signed by a key in the Debian
keyring (including DM AFAIK).

Inline signing is not mandatory (I use MIME-signing with mutt) but
there are enough cases where MIME-signing does not work properly
(at least with Enigmail apparently) that the generic recommendation
is to use inline signing to send mails to this list.
