Hi,
I was advised by Werner that I should direct the problem described below to 
this email address. Apologies for not having deduced in the first instance 
from the website.

I'd be thankful for any help you can give.

Dave

Hi Werner,

I've copied this to rhe webmaster just in case you no longer work there.

I have a dilemma and need some help. I downloaded gpa-0.4.2.tar.gz (GNU
Privacy Assistant) and gpa-0.4.2.tar.sig from http://www.gnupg.org and
then imported the key ID 621CC013 from the blackhole.pca.dfn.de
keyserver. I then proceeded to verify the package but discovered that the
signature has been revoked. I then retrieved the signature from another
keyserver, pgpkeys.mit.edu, with the same revoked signature. Can I be
advised on how I should proceed. Hopefully there is a simple explanation
to this as the GNU Privacy Assistant seems a pretty good frontend for
gnupg which I want to start using soon. Hope you'll be able to help, and keep
up the good work !

TIA
Dave
