Must it? Can't the PGP signature on the PDF be manually validated?

Can you indicate what the proper mailing list would be (noting that there is significant incentive for Emacs as a project to fix this issue, since we have a very large number of people writing ELisp code but not contributing it to Emacs — in part, I'm sure, due to copyright-related hurdles).
