Yeah, those forms still exist.  The web site even says

    Do you yet have a GPG key signed by a current developer or some
    other photo ID scanned in and signed with your GPG key?

But I usually talk of 'signed keys' because that's the preferred
method and because it is usually possible to get a signature these
days.
