Karl, thanks for your persistence and not leaving :)

No idea about the MIT problem you had, I was lucky and could just
copy+paste the examples and it worked first time.

If gpg -K lists your keys, try running:

gpg --sign fedora-icla-karl.txt

What is the "-a" for? I tried before and it also works on mine, and
asks for a passphrase...

Cheers,

Murray.
