IIRC, it was announced on "debian-user-announce" mailing list:

Debian Archive Signing Key to be changed
http://www.debian.org/News/2011/20110209

And if I catched correctly, it means that verifying the signature of  
testing/sid packages from squeeze/lenny will just give a warning because 
the package holding the new keys (debian-archive-keyring) has to be 
released.
