Yes the key expired, and I probably noticed first by virtue of living in
the future compared to everyone else.

We should be adding a new signing key each release for the next future 
release, and ensuring it will endure for at least 2 future release. 
This should be done immediately following a release.

This should be part of our "New Release - Devuan Devs guide to managing 
the new release process." - if such a document should exist.  (If it 
doesn't maybe we should create it.)

Regards,
    Daniel
