+The [Gentoo Foundation](https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Foundation:Main_Page) has
+partnered with [Nitrokey](https://www.nitrokey.com/) to equip all Gentoo developers
+with free [Nitrokey Pro 2](https://www.nitrokey.com/files/doc/Nitrokey_Pro_factsheet.pdf)
+devices. Gentoo developers will use the Nitrokey devices to store cryptographic
+keys for signing of git commits and software packages, GnuPG keys, and SSH
+accounts.
+
+<!--more-->
+
+Thanks to the Gentoo Foundation and Nitrokey’s discount, each Gentoo developer
+is eligible to receive one free Nitrokey Pro 2. To receive their Nitrokey, developers

+workflow.
