Description

A bit like https://github.com/privacytoolsIO/privacytools.io/issues/1622, we have multiple recommendations who are using PGP in code/software signing, sign emails they send or support PGP encrypted emails. https://github.com/privacytoolsIO/privacytools.io/issues/1703 would bring more of them, so I wonder if we should have a list of the PGP fingerprints (with a big warning to not solely trust us and do your own research)?

I think this might carry a risk of us becoming a pseudo CA though, while git makes all changes transparent (at least for those who look).

As with #1622, I have a personal "project" doing similar except that I am not bothering with proofs there. README

This is my concern, especially because we will now be tasked with keeping it up to date with changes as well. If a project utilizes PGP they should also have a mechanism to securely transmit that key to the user on their own, IMO.
