I was under the impression that GPG verification is better than hash
verification, but thinking about it, unless its vendor signed, they
are probably equal.
http://wiki.sourcemage.org/Source_Integrity_Checking_Standards states
that all spells should be moved to GPG verification. It also states
" The following are not valid bugs yet, but may be in the future:
Spells which use SOURCE_HASH instead of SOURCE_GPG."
I figured we may as well start moving them over now if they do
eventually become bugs. Although, it looks like I've been ignoring
putting in the verification level.

Should I not bother switching things over to GPG verification?

I've been mentioning it in HISTORY because I think its a good idea to
mention any changes should things like this occur.

Sorry fixed. I thought I did check it, but I guess I forgot to after I
switched to gpg verification.
I wrote a script that automatically switches spells to gpg
verification for me, I'll make it automatically cast the spell after
each change - that is, if I should continue switching things over to
GPG verification.
