1019/

I'm signing with a new 4096 bit key I recently added to KEYS.

[orcmid]

I forgot to ask this when you mentioned the new key before.

Carl, is the fingerprint of this new key added to your account information at 
id.apache.org?

I see only one entry for cmarcum at <https://people.apache.org/keys/committer/> 
and that

     ASF ID: cmarcum
     LDAP PGP key: 8204 E089 64AC 9ABA 7472 A123 669C FA03 CED4 6810

     pub  2048R/CED46810 2011-07-04 Carl Marcum <cmar...@apache.org>
           Key fingerprint = 8204 E089 64AC 9ABA 7472  A123 669C FA03 CED4 6810
     uid                            Carl Marcum <carl.mar...@codebuilders.net>
     sub  2048R/3175CD6A 2011-07-04

is for your older 2048-bit key.  (Note that you can have any number of key 
signatures in your account record and you should probably not remove any that 
have been used in signing releases or for any other situation where 
confirmation is needed that the key is one of yous as an ASF committer.)

The committer keys file is automatically updated from PGP key signatures and 
will reflect countersignatures on your key (circle of trust attestations).  If 
the key is ever revoked for any reason, that will be discoverable there too 
unless the fingerprint or apache account are removed.  (Of course, you must 
publish your new 4069-bit public key to a PGP key server for this to work.)

As far as I know, public keys in release-archive KEYS files are not 
automatically synchronized in that manner, although the one associated with 
projects is, such as the one at
<https://people.apache.org/keys/group/openoffice.asc>.  This should *not* be used as 
a release KEYS though.  See <https://people.apache.org/keys/> for details.

What is needed in KEYS files for authenticating a release and stored in the 
mirror directories is always cumulative, so any signature you have used to sign 
a release (candidate) needs to be in the release-associated KEYS file.  It is 
nice to use the
<https://people.apache.org/keys/committer/>-accessed version of the key in our 
KEYS file because that one has the Useful descriptive information as shown for your 
2048-bit key, above.

Note that keys that have not been used in signing release candidates do not 
need to be in release-associated KEYS files and it is good practice (and an 
useful precaution) to keep it that way.

PS: None of this is a release blocker.  But you can get the dots connected 
before the [VOTE] concludes.  I assume there is no further reason to touch the 
KEYS file that you have already updated.

Hi Dennis,

Thank you for the reminder.

My new key was uploaded to public servers. ex. https://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=vindex&search=0xF1DA7E3B9553BF9A

Before the vote I manually added it to http://www.apache.org/dist/openoffice/KEYS

I have just now added the new fingerprint to my profile at https://id.apache.org/
for reference it is:
pub   4096R/9553BF9A 2016-04-02
      Key fingerprint = 813A C3C2 48B3 F26F B5D1  EB32 F1DA 7E3B 9553 BF9A
uid                  Carl Marcum (CODE SIGNING KEY) <cmar...@apache.org>
uid Carl Marcum (CODE SIGNING KEY) <carl.mar...@codebuilders.net>
sub   4096R/D8524D84 2016-04-02

Is there now something that needs fixed?

Thanks,
Carl
