There is no GPG key for the PyRoom PPA. There will most likely never be one, because the PPA system does not support GPG authentication and there isn't a consensus on just how it would work (remember that the system is used by hundreds of teams who must be trusted individually of each other).

Rest assured that once PyRoom is accepted into Debian and Ubuntu that those releases will be signed. :)

Thanks, that answers the question. I didn't know that signing is not possible through PPA.

BTW: Keep up the good work, I use PyRoom very often...^^
