Roland, the 3.1 release tarball is signed,

http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/bbdb/

        bbdb-3.1.tar.gz         01-Mar-2014 05:40       366K
        bbdb-3.1.tar.gz.sig     01-Mar-2014 05:40       287

which is great,

  $ gpg ~/tmp/bbdb-3.1.tar.gz.sig
  Detached signature.
  Please enter name of data file: ../bbdb3_3.1.orig.tar.gz 
  gpg: Signature made Sat 01 Mar 2014 04:57:58 GMT using RSA key ID 44A3B825
  gpg: Can't check signature: public key not found

Debian now has facilities to automatically download and verify such
signatures, thus firmly closing the barn door.

Unfortunately I cannot find the signing key anywhere.

  $ gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --search 44A3B825
  gpg: searching for "44A3B825" from hkp server pgp.mit.edu
  gpg: key "44A3B825" not found on keyserver

An armored export of the key in that same download directory would
probably make sense.  (I'm sure the NSA will know it's actually your key,
so you should be able to get them to sign it for you.)

                                        Cheers,

                                        --Barak.
