My email finally got through today. According to #debian-lists, there
was an issue with the signature verification software, which was fixed
yesterday.
In my case, I also previously had issues because I added a new signing
subkey that took some time to propagate across Debian's infrastructure.
The main issue is we have currently no way of noticing when a number is
skipped. It would be nice to automate this stuff somehow, yet I can't
quite think of how... Maybe by adding (signed) DLA files themselves into
security tracker and have *that* send out the announcements?
