Oh, rubbish. Just use your PGP key, FFS.

What an excellent suggestion! I'll disable signature checking on
packages in dinstall immediately.
Look, it's very simple, a) things sometimes get missed (e.g. Takao
KAWAMURA's key, which I honestly thought was processed), and b) I have
to prioritise my time on Debian and replacing PGP keys with GPG keys
will from time to time to lose to things like DAMing new maintainers.
If you want to pester me privately or to keyring-maint@debian.org,
feel free, but whining on public lists with stupidity like "If no one
cares[...]" above is counter-productive _at best_.
Incidentally Piotr sent his key in on Oct 3rd.
