I've changed my mind about tying package.el to DVCS now.  It require external 
tools,  so it wouldn't be available to all Emacs users.  If people like this 
feature, we can make it a package in ELPA to make its use optional.

As for GnuPG and OpenPGP implementation, I prefer the latter(although it is 
more difficult and may be low-quality), because (at least)I don't like call 
external tools.
