[CentOS-devel] CentOS Atomic Host SIG Proposal

This is just a test image, totally unofficial. I expect the SIG eventually to distribute images with all the sorts of measures you suggest. 

For now, for enhanced trustability, I suggest people build their own.

Regards,

Jason

Jason, would you please be so kind as to Gnupg 'clearsign' [1] 
the SHASUM file with a key of record at the MIT keyserver, 
and hopefully endorsed by someone on the list at [2].  There 
are several Red Hatters and Fedorians

The security model for distributing these blogs is potentially 
broken as your initial post makes it.  

	-Hypothetically, a Dr Evil, or a MitM, could subvert 
	both the images and the SHASUM file.  

	- Transit is over a non SSL protected channel and so 
	subject to invisible MitM.  

	- I do not know the provenance of a un-named IP on 
	the internet.  

	- It is not clear how the distribution is maintained 
	or potentially shared with anonymous others

If the image was built by a scripted process, I would also 
appreciate seeing such automation scripting as well

Thanks,
