This is up to you, but note that most OpenPGP programs don't support
SHA512 yet. Also note that most people have a DSA primary key and
thus can't use any hash larger than 160 bits.
Uhm,... perhaps a stupid question,.. but:
If DSA keys are 1024 bit large,... why is this only enought for 160 bit
hashes?
