I'm none of these.  There are at least 19 David Shaws on the keyserver
net as well, not including me.  My email address globally indicates

Isn't this why some people use UIDs like "John Doe (Amsterdam, The
Netherlands, 1970-01-01)" next to the email-ones?

I don't get the point. Why they do?

Cordially, Ismael
