If it were a discussion about whether Python itself should ship with GnuPG, I
would surely have raised it there. It's more about third-party tools like pip,
as Giovanni said, so I thought that catalog-sig or distutils-sig would be more
appropriate. The issues around GPG (and TUF) were already being discussed here.

It's still early in the discussion, so my email to the FSF was just a means of
exploring what options are available. It's too early to say whether it's a good
idea to ship GnuPG with any Python package, but there shouldn't be any FUD just
because the GPL and common Python package licenses aren't compatible.
