+ <prereq>Deleting a keystore deletes all of the keys within that keystore as well. Before deleting any keystore,
+ examine the keystore's contents to make sure that the keys are no longer needed. To be safe, you may want to back
+ up the keystore before deleting it.<note>When submitting an Android application update to Google Play, the update
+ <i>must</i> be signed using the exact same key that was used to sign the original application. Be sure to keep
+ copies of all keys you have used to sign apps submitted to Google Play.</note></prereq>
