Great question! I don't have access to the old repository, mailing list, and bug trackers yet, but here are some places where you can keep track of things.

Until I get access to the old resources, you can follow me at @jscott at fosstodon.org (https://fosstodon.org/@jscott on the Web) or subscribe to the RSS feed https://fosstodon.org/@jscott.rss but that obviously might encompass more generic topics.

I am a Debianite and I'm on my way to becoming an official maintainer (woo!), so I'm going to wear two hats and maintain Monkeysphere upstream and downstream. For Debian Monkeysphere news you can check out the Debian Package Tracker at https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/monkeysphere which lets you 'Subscribe' to get emails on activity, they've got an RSS feed, or you can check out the Debian Git repo on Salsa which also allows email subscription and has RSS feeds https://salsa.debian.org/pkg-privacy-team/monkeysphere

Reduce, reuse, and recycle: why make a fresh public key pair when you can reduce, reuse, and recycle one you've already got? That's what it's all about, not even necessarily about OpenPGP, but OpenPGP does happen to be the most versatile cryptosystem (supports a lot of trust models and configurations) which makes it the most appealing target. My vision for Monkeysphere is to make it a cluster of scripts, conversion utilities, and above all inspiration to innovative application development where the current gaps are.

Thanks for your interest!
