Aha, I see.  So my public key is the following:

[pubkey address@hidden
MIGdMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBAQUAA4GLADCBhwKBgQDGucSEb03B3CxFua0j1ptwPBRcxKPPcdBL
1e7n7aJzJXczrfrE0ygR/0PxcX26q6GEc0RlywjPHSz2hjf5Zfdd4d5wfdHbC5AUhxjQfux5
y5aN9vYiFRPwhAUgKopHASir9lvdClnpwtBjy4jh+yTciRZX+1ZIFysyRM4ebktBxwIBEQ==
[end]

However, I don't understand this very well yet: so far, I've been
creating revisions on the head of the net.venge.monotone.changesets
branch, and 'monotone heads' shows me only one head including my
modifications.  So, IIUIC, people will keep seeing the old head
unless you issue the cert approving my changes, right?
[ Now that I read the manual, this looks like to be explained in the
'3.2 Quality Assurance' section... ]

Kind regards,
