Thanks Brett, this was the info I was looking for.

The repo security work looks like it's a ways out. Would you be amenable to a patch to the DefaultWagonManager that did PGP signature validation? My current thinking would be to base the code on the bouncycastle PGP support (so that PGP isn't required to be installed on the system) and offer a set of maven config properties for locating the keyring, whether the signature is required, etc. Famous last words, but it doesn't seem like it should be too difficult, looking at the existing code.

It would certainly be a useful addition to add a preliminary check
mojo to the existing gpg plugin as well.

The code you are referring to is the DefaultWagonManager in
maven-artifact (maven-artifact-manager in 2.0.x).
