   Key BF156B83E4D5AD06AF3A0C2C384F8E68AC65B0D5 is exclusively used for
   signing Git commit records.  [...]

   I uploaded those keys to the keyservers as well, so that people could
   easily validate the signatures on my commit records, but I thought I
   had arranged things so that they wouldn't take precedence over ...AA64
   in searches by email address.  It seems I was wrong:

   $ gpg --auto-key-locate keyserver --locate-keys zackw@xxxxxxxxx
   pub   ed25519 2018-07-23 [SC]
         BF156B83E4D5AD06AF3A0C2C384F8E68AC65B0D5
   uid           [  full  ] Zack Weinberg (code signing / moxana) <zackw@xxxxxxxxx>

   I presume this is how Thien-Thi got the wrong key.

I followed the instructions in the release notice, which
mentions BF156B83E4D5AD06AF3A0C2C384F8E68AC65B0D5 by a shorter
name:

> If that command fails because you don't have the required

Probably it would suffice to followup on that thread, naming the
desired key (short or full) to be downloaded, for others to see.
