It turns out that the wrong address is also currently listed at 
<URL:http://ftp-master.debian.org/dm-uploaders.html> for this key:

    dm:ben at benfinney.id.au      Ben Finney      9CFE12B0791A4267887F520CB7AC2E51BD41714B

This should instead be:

    dm:ben+debian at benfinney.id.au      Ben Finney      9CFE12B0791A4267887F520CB7AC2E51BD41714B

to match the address used for signing, uploading, and maintaining all 
my Debian packages.

Presumably this needs fixing either within 'dak' or within 
'debian-maintainers'?
