I no longer have access to this gpg key:

address@hidden ~$ gpg --list-keys 0x02A296150C201823
pub   rsa4096/0x02A296150C201823 2016-05-01 [SC] [revoked: 2016-05-01]
      Key fingerprint = 1321 2A27 975A F076 77A2  9F70 02A2 9615 0C20 1823

But I think using my gnunet.org blog to make a statement which I will
sign with the last key I made a release with (which is no longer in practical
use, but will never be revoked):

address@hidden ~$ gpg --list-keys 0xACBC390F7CB7D667
pub   ed25519/0xACBC390F7CB7D667 2017-03-26 [SC]
      Key fingerprint = 4E87 D27C 7014 FC53 B004  D17D ACBC 390F 7CB7 D667
uid                   [ultimate] address@hidden

See https://gnunet.org/node/2647

for the last use of this key.

As mentioned aboved, I will do the signed post. I hope that is enough?
