Hi Manuel,

If you've lost the signing passphrase for a PGP key, you should revoke it. This article can help: https://medium.com/@fro_g/oh-no-i-forgot-my-pgp-private-keys-passphrase-6ec1d0228b48

I believe you'll need to publish a new version of your software with your updated signing keys - which also need to be published to a keyserver such as http://pgp.mit.edu/ . Information about working with a new PGP key for Maven Central is available at this link: https://central.sonatype.org/pages/working-with-pgp-signatures.html

Cheers,
Daniel

p.s. By the way - I can see you've probably found us here as the Maven project uses Jira for bug tracking. This is a community about Jira and other Atlassian products though; while a few folks might be able to answer Maven questions, in general I think you'll want the Maven mailinglists instead: https://maven.apache.org/mailing-lists.html

Could you explain what this has to do with Atlassian?
