Hmm. Why did you do a 2048-bit key? Your old one was 4k..

Since you haven't gotten anybody to sign the new key yet, may I
suggest throwing this one away and doing a new 4096-bit key?

Yeah, yeah, I know, my *own* key is just 2048 bits, because back when
I created it we were discussing using various hardware tokens, and
some of them (at the time) didn't do more than 2k. So I shouldn't
really complain when somebody else does a 2k key. But that was a few
years ago, and I claim stupidity (I never did use a hardware token).

Anyway, pulled, since it was all signed by your previous key, and I
guess 2k is still supposed to be "good enough".
