3 Tails developers maintain several OpenPGP key pairs.
9 Private mailing-list key
10 ========================
17 This key has an encryption subkey. Please use it to encrypt email sent
18 to the core developers encrypted mailing-list: <tails@boum.org>.
22 This key also has the capability to sign and certify. Until Tails
23 0.5 and 0.6~rc3, released images were signed by this key. This purpose
24 is now deprecated: further releases will be signed by a dedicated,
25 safer signing key. As of 2010 October 7th, our mailing-list key
26 signature only means our mailing-list software checked the signed
27 content was originally OpenPGP-signed by a Tails core developer.
32 The secret key material and its passphrase are stored on the server
33 that runs our encrypted mailing-list software and on systems managed
34 by core Tails developers.
36 This means people other than Tails developers are in a position to
37 use this secret key. Tails developers trust these people enough to
38 rely on them for running our encrypted mailing-list, but still: this
39 key pair is managed in a less safe way than our signing key.
