As well as the issues that Miguel and Greg mentioned there's cases where we specifically want to drop tags, the most obvious one being that if a patch or possibly even it's context changes substantially between versions that will invalidate the testing or review that was done on prior versions. Perhaps we might want something like "please note that while the default is to apply tags signers..." but I don't think we'd want anything stronger. --OJsS87fX618Yyo0C Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAABCgAdFiEEreZoqmdXGLWf4p/qJNaLcl1Uh9AFAmeFFvoACgkQJNaLcl1U h9AMawf/RDVc9QITXwisNyheXl8wCZ+1FAqXf0USgJDR7Ptsogz9dHSl2M+2AOLe yJVnHXWVirQfunQ/ipUFyqZbzEH1f5HEv1e+r+1k7MQkbGcK1UTFKvLWGLySiHrk DVUDPRUejJnTn62xGuKB2QYbY4M34CyIsi3qR/dDM8XVc7J6aGlsUabbLdyYRiM2 D/HPQc8k2kvW/QITElrHR6CLyE1ujKmpEbWfCmyhVj42UCN8GyQv3mv21SToo3qH sz5/Gz2MjnA/+SwSXZvjLIvHI699/TEsgntSHrH2Mc1ZyTCyNxuODNDZ9b7pS4ys b2GRgd5YQ0jSaj8TsHX2NUzTQc01QA== =nNXE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --OJsS87fX618Yyo0C--
