are there plans to sign (with some given key, preferably one of yours on the
keyring) the repository at  http://monk.debian.net/debian/?  other than
that source, i've been able to update with no problems.

how much testing has gone into testing badly-signed packages, or
packages which are properly signed but don't match the latest Releases
file (possible MiM attack where an old, vulnerable but signed package is
substituted for the correct one)?  is some needed?
