Hi gpg4win folks--

https://www.gpg4win.org/package-integrity.html suggests that there are
two OpenPGP certificates that might be used to verify the integrity of
gpg4win releases.

Fetching those certificates and looking at them, i notice that the
user ID on both certificates is:

     Intevation File Distribution Key <distribution-key at intevation.de>

When i tried to fetch them via WKD, though, only the older certificate
is returned:

    0 $ gpg --locate-key distribution-key at intevation.de
    gpg: key 7CBD620BEC70B1B8: public key "Intevation File Distribution Key <distribution-key at intevation.de>" imported
    gpg: Total number processed: 1
    gpg:               imported: 1
    gpg: no ultimately trusted keys found
    pub   dsa1024 2010-03-19 [SC] [expires: 2020-03-16]
          61AC3F5EE4BE593C13D68B1E7CBD620BEC70B1B8
    uid           [ unknown] Intevation File Distribution Key <distribution-key at intevation.de>

    0 $

I think it would make more sense to publish both certificates in WKD,
rather than just the older one.

Could you make that change?

Regards,
