If you are among the many users who use the detached signatures provided with 
each
release download to verify their authenticity, please note that these releases 
are
double-signed -- the provided detached signature files can demonstrate the 
validity
of their contents using either:

 -  the 2019-2020 code signing key (AE3F AC79 6711 EC59 FC00  7AA4 74BB 6B9A 
4CBB 3D38)
    which expires on January 31st of this month, or

 -  the 2021-2022 code signing key (7E1C 91AC 8030 A5A5 9D1E  FAB9 750F 3C87 
723E 4012)
    which is newly available from https://www.isc.org/pgpkey (specifically you 
want the
    item labeled "Current ISC Code Signing Key 2021 - 2022 (codes...@isc.org)"


For those who are unfamiliar with PGP / GPG, the page with the ISC public keys
(https://www.isc.org/pgpkey) also contains instructions on how to use the 
public key
portion of the codesign key and the signature files to verify the contents of 
your download.

After 31 January, 2021, the old key will be expired and will no longer be used,
so please take care to update your public key ring before next month's releases.
