So get it. :-)

There shouldn't be anything about it in the README or I'd have to
place that information into documentation of everything I place
anywhere.

Each signature file (*.sign) contains the URL:

Comment: http://www.openwall.com/signatures/

(It's added there automagically, by a script.)

It's also linked from the navigation bar on www.openwall.com (the
"signatures" link).

Additionally, besides the above URL, the PGP key is available on key
servers.  You simply notice the key ID and type:

gpg --keyserver wwwkeys.pgp.net --recv-key 295029F1

I think this is enough ways to find the key.

I disagree.

Isn't ours pretty much the same?
