yeah, it would certianly be a "paradigm shift" ... i suggested it only
because there already is a PMC level KEYS file (for no clear reason that i
know of)
I'd vote for removing that top-level one, since it only confuses things.
(a second reason is that there *may* be some people who would have more
faith in a centralized KEYS file for all Lucene projects then for
sub-project specific - i have no idea how people who worry about
signed releases feel about that)
Browsing http://www.apache.org/dist/, there are a variety of styles.
Many projects have no top-level KEYS file. The common rule seems to be
that a KEYS file applies to its containing directory and all
subdirectories of that directory, although the automatic verification
code does not require that, considering all KEYS files.
