Devotee uses the keyring as provided by the keyring maintainers. As far as I know after you upload it to the keyserver, they have to process it. Once they have done that, it's available on ftp-master and devotee. I guess that's also when you can get it from the keyserver. There is a cron job to copy the files.

People, do check your keys' expiry! Keyring-maint will do a keyring push as

your key expires before the vote and you hurry, you will still manage to
cast your vote 🙃

Thanks for raising this Gunnar, I've been bitten by it in the past :-)

Is there a way for people to check the current expiration date of their
key copy *in the keyring used by devotee*? That would be very helpful.

(In my case, I was bitten by the fact the keyring copy was not
up-to-date wrt where I was checking myself, so having a way to check *on
devotee* side would have been a real plus.)
