9.5.1 Automated Upload Registration

To register your information to perform automated uploads, send a message, preferably GPG-signed, to ftp-upload@gnu.org with the following:

  1. Name of package(s) that you are the maintainer for, and your preferred email address.
  2. An ASCII armored copy of your GnuPG key, as an attachment. (`gpg --export -a YOUR_KEY_ID >mykey.asc' should give you this.)
  3. A list of names and preferred email addresses of other individuals you authorize to make releases for which packages, if any (in the case that you don't make all releases yourself).
  4. ASCII armored copies of GnuPG keys for any individuals listed in (3).

The administrators will acknowledge your message when they have added the proper GPG keys as authorized to upload files for the corresponding packages.
