This will obviously have to wait until Debian doesn't have to sign
anything to re-distribute.

As for the signing, that only has to be done by one Debian
representative. This would be the package maintainer. The mirroring
network is covered by paragraph 2.1: "distribute the Software, either
directly or indirectly through multiple tiers of distributors", so
they don't need to sign anything.
Quoth the Policy, section 2.3:
We reserve the right to restrict files from being included anywhere in
our archives if
* their use or distribution would break a law,
* there is an ethical conflict in their distribution or use,
* we would have to sign a license for them, or
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* their distribution would conflict with other project policies.
