Wow, it's really grown if that's true, which is good to see. And indicates
that support for a 3rd party article signing standard would be strong
right away. PGPverify wasn't too bad as a first stab, though it's main
flaws were:
a) Used PGP, a then-proprietary external program
But which nobody had any difficulty using
b) Needed a bulky header list
No bulkier than other likely mechanisms
c) Didn't sign the body
Yes it did.
In fact, its most frequent reason for failure was the appearance or
disappearance of trailing empty lines in the body.
