hey all--

thanks for the 2.1.11 release.  I'm packaging it up for debian now, and
reviewing the changes.

i just noticed that 2c3e67430d9b523c85c81ae562223fd51e3608cc claims to
be signed-off-by me, but it also includes a change in the default
keyid-format, from 0xlong to short.

I actually think that the format should be 0xlong, *not* short [0] (or
keyids shouldn't be displayed at all, but that's probably a separate
discussion), so i was a little surprised to see this change as
attributed to me.

What about moving explicitly to 0xlong by default in the future?
