I'd keep them, thanks.
Concerning the PGP signatures of the download archives:
IMO checking the signatures would be much easier for potential users of the .gz or .lz archives if the signatures would be available for download as files at https://www.iana.org/time-zones, e.g.
tzdb-2024a.tar.lz.asc for an ASCII signature, or tzdb-2024a.tar.lz.sig for a binary signature.
Yes, they're available, e.g.,:
https://data.iana.org/time-zones/releases/tzdb-2024a.tar.lz.asc
and similarly for tzcode and tzdata.
Perhaps there should be be links to these signatures from <https://www.iana.org/time-zones>, in another column of the "Latest version" table.
Yes, that would be great. Otherwise, someone who just comes across the download page at IANA does't even know that signatures are available.
