     1. Create an new GPG key for your new email and publish it on the
        keyservers
     2. Edit your email and GPG KeyID at
        https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/userbox.cgi?_edit=1
     3. download a new ~/.fedora.cert from
        https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/gen-cert.cgi
     4. Change your email in owners.list
     5. Change your email in bugzilla
     6. Edit ~/.plague-client.cfg and insert your new email
     7. Revoke the old GPG key if everthing is working

Steps 5 and 6 need to be done within one hour, otherwise Bugzilla will
start to send out warnings to you because of the mismatching addresses.
