I imported the GNU keyring, but when I tried to verify the .sig file 
accompanying this binary, I got a public key not found error. The key of 
the person who used to build and provide this binaries are in that 
keyring, but not yours? Maybe I made a mistake, I'm new to gpg.

It isn't possible to upload to the GNU ftp server if your public key is
not in the GNU keyring, so I think you must have an old version of the
keyring.

I just downloaded the keyring from 
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-keyring.gpg and I could not find my key. 
Maybe this needs to be updated?

Any update on this? The key used to sign the Windows tarballs
(0x597F9E69) is not in the gnu-keyring.gpg from the above address, nor
available on public keyservers, such as http://pgp.surfnet.nl/.

Nope. Sorry, no update. Stefan told me to open a ticket on Savannah to 
get this resolved, but I haven't had a chance to do so.

The day when I wrote the original post (18th jan, 2012), I googled for 
"download gnu public keys" and selected the third hit: 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5701388/where-can-i-find-the-public-key-for-gnu-emacs
and on that page I used a download link I found:
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-keyring.gpg

And Mr Scholtes key was not in the keyring at the time, some 350+ other 
keys were, but not his. It was strange I thought since Mr Scholtes has 
been providing Windows binaries for some time now. I didn't check the 
past few days if his key is now present in the keyring, since I didn't 
see any posts on this mailing list that it was.
