 Special Announcements
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-None.
+. We've found a workaround for importing keys on https://keys.openpgp.org
+without User-ID. The instructions for verifying persmule's signatures have
+been added.
+Canary Verification Procedures
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+. To verify biergaizi's signature...
+    a. Obtain the public key from any traditional OpenPGP Keyserver, such as
+    https://keyserver.ubuntu.com, and import the public key. The fingerprint
+    is 0x255211B2395A5A3E0E48A0F1FAD3EB05E88E8D6D.
+    b. Use the latest GnuPG in any operating system.
+. To verify persmule's signature...
+    a. Due to the previous attacks on OpenPGP keyservers, persmule has published
+    the OpenPGP public key to https://keys.openpgp.org without a User-ID. Using
+    the standard method, it's impossible to import a OpenPGP public key without
+    User-ID. But since April 2013, we have developed a workaround, described
+    below.
+    b. Obtain the dummy public key from any traditional OpenPGP Keyserver,
+    such as https://keyserver.ubuntu.com, and import the public key. The
+    fingerprint is 0xEDFFE248ECFACDE3C805906804A40D21DBB89B60. Note that, to
+    import this key, one must copy and paste the key in ASCII from the Keyserver
+    website to a file or console and use the command "gpg --import". Due to a
+    technical problem, Using "gpg --recv-key" or "gpg --search-keys" does not
+    work.
+    c. This is a special dummy public key with its User-IDs and subkeys stripped
+    that we specifically created, leaving only a "stub" User-ID (with an invalid
+    E-mail address, "glahamm <yiam5Od@gliwrad.invalid>"). Its sole purpose is
+    allowing the subsequent import of additional subkeys.
+    d. Next, with the stub key already imported, obtain the public key from
+    https://keys.openpgp.org using the same fingerprint, and import this key.
+    Because the dummy key with its stub User-ID is already in presence, it's
+    now possible to import the https://keys.openpgp.org public key directly.
+    e. Use the latest GnuPG in most operating system, the signatures made by
+    persmule's key can now be verified as usual. Debian is known to work, most
+    other systems should work just fine, but not Fedora. The subkeys contains
+    signatures made with Brainpool curves, which are disabled on Fedora due to
+    potential patent-licensing problems, causing a "Unknown elliptic curve"
+    error.
+. To verify vimacs' signature...
+    a. Obtain the public key from any traditional OpenPGP Keyserver, such as
+    https://keyserver.ubuntu.com, and import the public key. The fingerprint
+    is 0x7079B481F04B5D8B65A0ECDEEA2DB82FE04A9403.
+    b. Use the latest GnuPG in any operating system.
