I'm now running a repository for my open source project, Deluge

One person asked me where to download the GPG key for the repo,
and it occurred to me that I didn't have one, so how do i go
about making one? And then, what do I do with it / Where do I
put it?


On a related note, what's an easy method for hosting apt mirrors?

Currently, I have repo's on two servers, and so I manually update
each of them when I build a new release, but is there an easy way
I can automate this?

Thanks,

zach

gpg --gen-keyThis should get you started, and when it asks, pick (1) DSA and Elgamal (default). Post that to your server (not sure on how to do this correctly, though) and then people can import keys and such.
