Problem gpg --verify of Xerces download

I have downloaded these file from http://www.apache.org/dist/xml/xerces-j/
KEYS
Xerces-J-bin.2.6.2.tar.gz
Xerces-J-bin.2.6.2.tar.gz.sig

Import keys with:
gpg --import KEYS

Verify signature gives error:
==>
[johnz@tsl010 Xerces]$ gpg --verify Xerces-J-bin.2.6.2.tar.gz.sig
Xerces-J-bin.2.6.2.tar.gz
gpg: Signature made Sat 21 Feb 2004 10:23:01 AM NZDT using DSA key ID
745ECEAA
gpg: Good signature from "Michael Glavassevich <mr...@ca.ibm.com>"
gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature!
gpg:          There is no indication that the signature belongs to the
owner.
Primary key fingerprint: 3526 7674 1E89 E1F0 20DF  0F43 1DC3 01DC 745E CEAA
[johnz@tsl010 Xerces]$
==>

What can be wrong here ?

It means my key has not been cross-signed by someone else. There are 
number of other people who aren't connected to the Apache web of trust 
[1]. It's just a matter of meeting face to face with someone who is 
connected and cross-signing keys with them. That's on my TODO list.
