Hi,

It seems that the public gpg key change recently.  
We used to verify it with this public key

```auto
pub dsa1024 2009-02-27 [SC]
      2BCBDD0F23EA1CAFCC11D4860374CF2E8DD1BDFD
uid [unknown] Sonatype, Inc. (Sonatype release key) <dev@sonatype.com>
sub elg2048 2009-02-27 [E]

```

but it does not work anymore ☹

we want to verify the gpg signature (asc file from download page at [Download](https://help.sonatype.com/en/download.html)) but we can not find the public gpg key ( [C26BAB2B209A8FF4](https://keys.openpgp.org/search?q=C26BAB2B209A8FF4)

How can we download it ?

Thanks
