This is a very unexpected statement. I feel it should not be passed unquestioned.

Is there any meat there or it's just a general statement on the security
of the CentOS build process vs the security of the Red Hat build process
vs the security of the Princeton build process? (including signatures of source code,
signatures of binary packages, security of the mirror network, etc).
