Hey Martin,
I wouldnt recommend adding it to the me-menu at all. Putting it in accessories and just having it there would be a lot better. The reason is kinda obvious most users dont use gpg keys and wouldnt have any need for them to be there. Maybe you could add it to about-me instead. Great idea though and id love to add some of the goodness to fix the quickly gpg, ssh mess at the moment. On a side note the whole trust requests thing goes right over my head it would be one of those features that I would completely ignore or just hit accept for everything. --fagan On Mon, 2010-06-21 at 14:55 -0400, Martin Owens wrote: > Dear Ayatana, > > Myself and a few others have been working on a concept to improve the > functionality and ease of use of the gpg key system we use.
