That's why it's a good thing it's a FLOSS solution. Despite a track record of bad code and security, GPG has always been good-willed, and has progressed over the years. For sure having more eyes/resources on the code can only help. Also the recent Sequoia PGP project can prove to be an inspiration for further improvements.

Agreed, I was mainly responding to what seemed to be a more open “why could it be a problem that a military organisation is involved?” question.
And as other recent issues highlight, open to many eyeballs does not necessarily imply completely robust and secure code.
