Hi Shane!

Of course I cannot speak for the membership,
I can only do so for our LIR:
Yes, signed email communication should be supported.
In particular with the current situation that "from" and "to"
lines are just "random text" in a "subset" of messages being
sent on the net these days ;-)
I think that encryption almost comes for free when we've got signatures,
and should be offered as well, _but not be required_.
