Okay, I've read that. I have the correct address listed as the 
'Maintainer' field for the 'lojban-common' package, and that's the 
same address I'm using when I sign the '.changes' file.

You're right, the primary userid differs from the one I'm using for 
Debian. But one of the main points of having multiple userids on a 
GnuPG key is to be able to use them in different contexts while using 
the same key — i.e. to allow the identities to be related while 
remaining discrete.

I'm using 'ben+debian at benfinney.id.au' for my Debian userid, which is 
one of the current userids for that key, and has been explicitly 
signed by Debian developers.

Can we please update the system so that the valid userid 
'ben+debian at benfinney.id.au', which matches the Maintainer field, is 
accepted and recognised?
