I sign all the mails I wrote.

I find hard to understand your point here, IMHO gpg signing makes
exactly the same point on public ml as they do on private correspondence

If I had to face the desicion of stop signing a given kind of message
Id rather stop signing *private* messages, as they are usually going to be
readed by someone I know, for whom my identity and authorship is easily 
derived from the mail contents in itself.

I understand Rich arguing against smime stuff that tends to be rather
large, but, gpg signatures?, come on! mine is about ~0.2K long.... not 
larger than most .sig ppl use everyday here.

ps: I guess anyone can implement a filter to wipe out this kind of
content (if really needed) from our lists mails, if you agree and need
help, i can setup one on the server.
