@Locutus - for detailed documentation, please check out the arch wiki. pgp is included with the release, and the assumption is that either one knows how to use it or one checks the man page: "gpg --recv-keys key" is the syntax. as for uid, the linux utility, useradd, assigns user IDs starting at 1001. no. if you took a quick look around you'll notice their are no discussions, so I'm not sure what exactly would lead you to believe that anyone monitors this page. discussions are at the facebook page...
