Notes:
    Should we also make the key available for download?

Now that you've provided the fingerprint, isn't it enough for the users to
fetch it from a keyserver should they wish so?

Sure, it is enough. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't the only one who
thought so :-)

The problem is that more and more keyservers are being rendered 
worthless by spam keys exploiting their append-only nature, which makes 
them no longer an ideal way to get a key.  I'd recommend making it 
available for download here in addition to the keyservers.
