What I meant are proofs based on the ability to decrypt a message. That is not going to work if you do not have an encryption subkey. Regarding signing challenges; they are fine as along as a signing subkey is available. Like me, some folks keep their primary key offline and may even use a dedicated box for signing keys. The challenges are thus somewhat cumbersome. Shalom-Salam, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei.
