Unfortunately I don't see any signature at all, however it's more my
problem than yours.

I'm accessing the ML through the GMame gateway (news.gmame.org:119), since
I much prefer Usenet to mailing lists, and it looks like they're filtering
attachments (such as your GPG sig).

My loss I suppose. Still, thought you should know.

The headers of your message does show:

"Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1;
protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary=5vNYLRcllDrimb99"

But the attachment has been striped.

I tend to use GPG sigs only for official announcements and such, and
prefer to inline clearsign only the relevant section of the message like
this:

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
 
ANNOUNCE: New beta package Pan 0.14.2.90.0.fdr.1
URL: http://www.genesis-x.nildram.co.uk/apt/fedora/1/i386/RPMS.testing/
RPM: pan-0.14.2.90-0.fdr.1.i386.rpm
SIZE: 1198682b
MD5SUM: f5d1a77226e2afb1d8b9336f4a072f60
 
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux)

DF5TSXTzrvKaphRTznuwWEw=
=Gpaf
-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Not being able to view this message (my message) through every single
Email/News client out there, I have no idea how readable the above is.

I guess, like you, I just have to wait until someone complains ;)
