 From an earlier beta discussion. It was said that signing the packages 
is a manual process and is not used for frequently changing programs. 
(Depending on the packager, I guess)

The discussion said something about work on an automated way to sign the 
rpms. You might search the archives of the lists for the discussion.

I think that the discussion was on the Phoebe beta, but it might have 
been more recent.
