As did the other admins.  Frankly, I noticed that Bernard replied and
thus I did not even read it.  I send you a confirmantion mail for your
account.  dev.gnupg.org is often under heavy DoS by AI bots or
webspiders and thus please don't give up if you get a forbidden or other
strange error messages.

PGP never cared about the encoding because umlauts are not a mtter in
the US ;-) Thus many older keys are often Latin-1.  We can try
heuristics only at the display stage but not at any API.
