Thank you both for the kind words of advice. I've noted on my DM request
to ignore it and continue with subsequent steps this DD-uploading status
change request.

   Naturally, your key will have to be uploaded to a public key server. See 
 this
   wiki page for more [1].
   Get your key signed by other Debian developers if you want to become a 
 Debian
   Developer at some point. See this list to find someone in your area to 
 sign it [2].
   Follow the instructions in [3] to get your new key into the Debian 
 keyring.

 I have read all related documentation before send the message.
 Procedure [4] affects only DD. But I am not even DM now.
 And it seems like the key of a sponsored maintainer does not matter and it 
 can
 be changed in any moment. Because only one important thing in upload to the 
 main
 repo is the sign of sponsor (DD) which is checked by bot.
 Correct me if I am wrong.

 That's why I asked the question.
 
 In other words.
 Should I sign my new key by old one or make any other action?
 Or can I just use new key as it is?

Since it hasn't been mentioned in this thread, Ana's page on creating a
new 4096R key and configuring gnupg properly was extremely helpful to me:
