[Wikipedia-l] PGP signing for "official" mail

[Robert Graham Merkel]

Perhaps this is just from hanging around on the Debian project, but for
"official" notices, I got used to the standard practice of them being
cryptographically signed using gnupg (http://www.gnupg.org).

Cryptographic signing serves two purposes: so that it was possible to 
verify that they were:

a) from who they claimed to be from
b) that they had approved the message.

Would it be feasible for Wikimedia to adopt the same process?
