As my signature says, I encourage people to send encrypted e-mail.  Not just
when there is something to hide (in this case that would mean a security
problem which should be fixed before it is made public), but for any message
that is not meant to be public.

I expect some non-public messages addressed to game maintainance teams.  I
don't expect many people to actually encrypt them, but I do want to encourage
that, and having a key for making it possible is a good way to do it, I think.
Also, it allows team members to sign things (releases in particular) so people
know it's "official".

Since all this isn't very essential, setting all this up isn't high priority,
but it would be nice IMO.

Thanks,
Bas
