Please define.  I have had a couple keys I've revoked, or so I believe.
I imported the revocation certificates to my keychain, revoked any other
cross-referencing signatures, and then imported the updated PUBLIC KEY
to the keyserver.  If there's a way to send a signed, revocation
certificate to a keyserver, I would like to know how.

What is the proper way to do this if what I did was not correct?  Why is
this process not documented well?  I certainly cannot find anything in
the GnuPG documentation about exporting "signed recocation certificates"
to the keyserver.
