No public key for Firefox funnelcake.
When I download the latest version of Firefox from "https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#en-US" It downloads Funnelcake.Sha 512 9afd084156f5fda909cc51b2ebf539e75f788fa4c80b78445797ceb845041c0838e287493a0f849d1f357ecf7493efc1adabc786eb53b80fbeff6e433cbb2506
When I go to "https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/" to verify via PGP I only see the the "Firefox 40.3.dmg.asc" but no public key like other releases. If I try to validate the "Firefox 40.3.dmg.asc" using the "Mozilla software release public key" it does not authenticate. But If I go to Firefox 40. it autheticates usung PGP and it has the public key in the folder "https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/40.0/" Anyone know why?

Did some research, and got very hungry looking thru all those cakes.

You are not alone.
Funnelcake builds are an experiment for (new) Firefox users that offer a different Firefox version for testing the user experience.
I don't think that there are checksums available for such special builds, they are only available for the official releases.
There are more such builds planned:
- Bug 1202786 - Create funnelcake builds for OSX EN with a 2nd Tab at FirstRun.
- Bug 1205743 - Create funnelcake builds for Firefox 41.0 to understand SEM acquired users
- Bug 1184279 - Create funnelcake builds to test Firefox homepage variations

Then why is there a Firefox 40.3.dmg.asc file which is a signature file used with PGP?
OK, I missed the .asc file.
I see this on Linux in a terminal window with the KEY file present in the Firefox 40.0.3 release folder.

This doesn't tell me how to verify Funnel cake via PGP?
