+1) I'm going to package it on pypi, and hopefully Debian as well. I'm sure
+ you've noticed, but there's gpgpy, python-gnupg, pygpg, openpgpy,
+ python-gpgme, pyme, and I don't even know what else. The namespace is pretty
+ crowded, and I'm not sure if I should continue to use 'python-gnupg' because
+ mine is fairly distinct from upstream (and upstream hasn't responded, though
+ they did make a new release a couple months ago duplicating some of my
+ work). Should I change the name? Do you have any ideas for names?
+
+2) If anyone plans to use my version of python-gnupg, is there anything missing
+ that I should add, or parts of the API that are awkward? (This is one of the
+ things I'm finishing up now.) I don't want to add huge features now, but if
+ it was something like "make <packet that is currently skipped> be available
+ as an attribute of the result object of <gnupg operation>" then that is
+ quite doable.
+
+I just read through monkeysign/msign-cli and monkeysign/msign, and I'm glad
+there is a better version of my
+written-during-a-ragequit-on-the-amount-of-typing-required-to-certify-a-gpg-key
+script. Which is here[1], and not useful to you -- monkeysign is better.
+
+There is also a script I use for uploading a timestamped, signed copy of my
+primary public key and OTR fingerprints,[2] which might be useful, dkg has
+suggested that it "get published properly" -- which I took to mean putting it
+in caff. I don't particularly care where it goes, as long as no one else has to
+write the same thing again. Although I should revise it to include multiple OTR
+fingerprint (and probably other identity based key material, like a server's
+SSL fingerprint), and also to remove the annoying url-shortened link at L91.
