The signing process is otherwise described in the doc. You can use any service to excercise before pushing to the git.php.net, fe github. Usually pgp.mit.edu is used to publish keys. If you've already published the GPG key you're intended to use, please send it so we can sign. In further it would be ok to discuss on the release managers list, also you could ping on IRC if there's more.
