HOWTO Revoke a key without having any backup of the key pair ????

[Franck PERREAU]

Unfortunatelly, I haven't done such a revocation certificate :(

But I guess there must be some system administrator/moderators or so for
these key server, right ?

Someone somewhere must exist to give me some help on this :)
no ?

Best Regards,
Franck PERREAU.
