that's *one* of the three gleps

no.  e-mail warnings will be issued so that the dev can upload it
after the fact.

not generally an issue since gpg itself will not allow it, but i guess
we can be paranoid about it on the server to avoid people locally
turning back their clocks after having snipped someones expired key.

we might want to add an automatic e-mail warning to the developer when
their key is about to expire (like 1 week).

yes

no.  you can sign a key with your personal key and that's good enough.
