See also bug 296110, which is specifically about bzr including the Launchpad keys in its installation.

There seem to be a couple of things here:

 * The Launchpad SSH key should be published on the web, on a https url that's not publicly updatable (so not a wiki). This should be easy. We should publish both the fingerprint and the key.

 * We should document how to add the Launchpad host pubkey to putty; apparently (because of windows tty-like handling) it's not easy to do it on the first time you access Launchpad from bzr. I'm surprised more people haven't hit it.

 * We should include the host key in bzr and/or Ubuntu. (bug 296110)
