I've read on here that a lot of people say to age this in bottles for a few weeks and that it gets better with age. I've stopped bottling and only keg now, so how should I accomplish this?

Should I leave it, and naturally carb with priming sugar in the keg for a 2-4 weeks at room temp, leave it in the keg with no CO2 or anything hitting it for a few weeks, or leave it in the secondary for a few weeks? Or, should I figure out a way to bottle it? I'd planned on kegging it this weekend, so I'm curious.

Thanks in advance.
 
I would leave it in secondary for the recommended amount of time and then just carb it at 10-12 psi and wait at least 1-2 weeks before drinking. At least this is what I did.
 
I fermented mine for 3 weeks then kegged it and let it sit just short of 2 weeks. Then 1 week in the 'rator and it was good. After another week, it hit the sweet spot and from there, it went invisible.
