i already did. in fact i already submitted my GPG key for registration on 
address@hidden about 30 min ago (BTW, i tried to upload the tarball 
immediately 5 minutes after sending the email, just in case the GPG key was 
already registered - of course it was not and the upload failed miserably).

i was confused because i though that i could use savannah to upload tarballs 
in ftp.gnu.org.

and i am still confused because i don't know:

1) if my SSH key has been registered for my mtortonesi account on GNU servers
   (i still can't access those servers)
2) if my GPG key has been registered in the GNU maintainers DB (and, if not, 
   how long it will take before i will be able to use the FTP upload 
   procedure)
3) why a maintainer should ever need to register his GPG key twice (one on 
   address@hidden and another on address@hidden) - shouldn't maintainers
   be automatically needed FTP upload access?
4) will i ever receive a confirmation that my SSH key is enabled for accessing 
   GNU servers and that my GPG key is enabled for automated FTP upload?

could you please help me claryfing this points?

thank you very much in advance.
