I am not able to do this. I have been trying to reply to email sent
to me with the file fedora-icla-karl.txt which I added the I Agree and
Karl Larsen to. The new Instructions show how to do this with Gedit and
I used that. The resulting file is very different than the one made
directly with gpg. Here is the new file:

Thank you for your interest in The Fedora Project (the
"Project"). In order to clarify the intellectual property license
granted with Contributions from any person or entity, Red hat,
Inc. ("Red Hat"), as maintainer of the Project, must have a
Contributor License Agreement (CLA) on file that has been signed
by each Contributor, indicating agreement to the license terms
below. This license is for Your protection as a Contributor as
well as the protection of the Project and its users; it does not
change your rights to use your own Contributions for any other
purpose.
If you have not already done so, please complete an original signed
Agreement. Use black ink, and hand-print or type the items other than
the signature. Send the completed Agreement to
Fedora Project, c/o Red Hat, Inc.,
Attn: Legal Affairs
1801 Varsity Drive
Raleigh, North Carolina, 27606 U.S.A.
If necessary, you may send it by facsimile to the Project at
+1-919-754-3704 or e-mail a signed pdf copy of the document to
fedora-legal at redhat.com. Please read this document carefully before
signing and keep a copy for your records.

You and the Project hereby accept and agree to the following terms
and conditions:
1. Contributors and Contributions.
A. The Project and any individual or legal entity that
voluntarily submits to the Project a Contribution are
collectively addressed herein as "Contributors". For legal
entities, the entity making a Contribution and all other
entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common
control with that entity are considered to be a single
Contributor. For the purposes of this definition, "control"
means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the direction
or management of such entity, whether by contract or otherwise,
or (ii) ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the
outstanding shares, or (iii) beneficial ownership of such
entity.
B. A "Contribution" is any original work, including any
modification or addition to an existing work, that has been
submitted for inclusion in, or documentation of, any of the
products owned or managed by the Project, where such work
originates from that particular Contributor or from some entity
acting on behalf of that Contributor.
C. A Contribution is "submitted" when any form of electronic,
verbal, or written communication is sent to the Project,
including but not limited to communication on electronic
mailing lists, source code control systems, and issue tracking
systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, the Project for
the purpose of discussing or improving software or
documentation of the Project, but excluding communication that
is conspicuously marked or otherwise designated in writing by
you as "Not a Contribution."
D. Any Contribution submitted by you to the Project shall be
under the terms and conditions of this License, without any
additional terms or conditions, unless you explicitly state
otherwise in the submission.
2. Contributor Grant of License. You hereby grant to Red Hat,
Inc., on behalf of the Project, and to recipients of software
distributed by the Project:
(a) a perpetual, non-exclusive, worldwide, fully paid-up,
royalty free, irrevocable copyright license to reproduce,
prepare derivative works of, publicly display, publicly
perform, sublicense, and distribute your Contribution and such
derivative works; and,
(b) a perpetual, non-exclusive, worldwide, fully paid-up,
royalty free, irrevocable (subject to Section 3) patent license
to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and
otherwise transfer your Contribution and derivative works
thereof, where such license applies only to those patent claims
licensable by you that are necessarily infringed by your
Contribution alone or by combination of your Contribution with
the work to which you submitted the Contribution. Except for
the license granted in this section, you reserve all right,
title and interest in and to your Contributions.
3. Reciprocity. As of the date any such litigation is filed, your
patent grant shall immediately terminate with respect to any
party that institutes patent litigation against you (including
a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that your
Contribution, or the work to which you have contributed,
constitutes direct or contributory patent infringement.
4. You represent that you are legally entitled to grant the above
license. If your employer(s) has rights to intellectual
property that you create that includes your Contributions, you
represent that you have received permission to make
Contributions on behalf of that employer, that your employer
has waived such rights for your Contributions to the Project,
or that your employer has executed a separate Corporate CLA
with the Project.
5. You represent that each of your Contributions is your original
creation (see section 7 for submissions on behalf of others).
You represent that your Contribution submission(s) include
complete details of any third-party license or other
restriction (including, but not limited to, related copyright,
patents and trademarks) of which you are personally aware and
which are associated with any part of your Contribution.
6. You are not expected to provide support for your Contributions,
except to the extent you desire to provide support. You may
provide support for free, for a fee, or not at all. Your
Contributions are provided on an "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT
WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or
conditions of NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR
A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
7. Should you wish to submit work that is not your original
creation, you may submit it to the Project separately from any
Contribution, identifying the complete details of its source
and of any license or other restriction (including, but not
limited to, related patents, trademarks, and license
agreements) of which you are personally aware, and
conspicuously marking the work as "Submitted on behalf of a
third-party: [named here]".
8. You agree to notify the Project of any facts or circumstances
of which you become aware that would make these representations
inaccurate in any respect.
9. The Project is under no obligations to accept and include every
contribution.
If you agree to these terms and conditions, type "I agree" here: I agree

When I reply to the email I put this file in as an Attachment as the
Instructions say on Thunderbird but the return message says it didn't
work. Any ideas?
