New images and new verification keys

We’re pleased to announce that the 20191109 image set has been promoted to current and is now generally available.

A change that comes along with these new images is the adoption of signify(1) to verify images. We’re saying goodbye to PGP due to the complexity involved, the relative difficulty in verifying the resulting signature, and the questionable state of PGP key distribution right now.

The downloads page has been updated with instructions for how you can validate new images, and we hope you’ll find this process easier and faster than in previous releases.
