Latest update - 2018.05.26 - missing key on CentOS

[Benedikt Schäfer]

Hey,

I think what Enrico wanted to say is more like,
what could we do as community to avoid those kind of problmes in the 
future and improve the Kolab community.
Maybe we could run a community infrastructure by our own, just an idea 
to be more independent from Kolab Systems?

Best regards,
Benedikt
