Sure it is. Adding features "just because it's nice" is a pretty shoddy way to do engineering. Changes need to be driven by articulated needs. > Every now and then we get posts where people ask for this... right? We also get posts where people ask "is there any way for me to get access to my files now that I've forgotten my passphrase?" Should we change GnuPG to accommodate their wishes? Just because people ask for something is not a compelling reason to give it to them. I see no reason to add "features" to GnuPG that have no connection to any real-world need. Changing the largest keysize, even in expert mode, has no connection to any real-world need I've ever heard anyone articulate, and so I'm pretty hostile to the idea. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
