Right, but thinking about he said he wanted some explanations from an user point of view, I think we should advice him to don't try to make both standards to interoperate... at least, not at "code" level... I was accepted in GSWoT about 2 days ago, so I am still unsure how does it operate to extend the WoT, but as far as I know, the aim of GSWoT is to make a link (or bridge) between x.509 certificates and PGP keys... Of course it may be -or may not be- a solution for his problem... if the challenger doesn't trust CAcert, or Thawte, or GSWoT... -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJJShKVAAoJEMV4f6PvczxAYscH/1eNTDt88Ah+tlsQ95BM1QSh J2g8yBgTRkRDcelyZUGg6ZphWf5zynWhDZ8DWMsJZA4hv1GVaJ6dtErO6EFURGt7 5Ozlj4vJnw1Z6JPGXQTesdAD+e9NkQPzn3Qu10giEa40H8VCd1yyH+yxQBMgcpTu FDmOipSJ1b3Q+qkoEAWM79S2X3J41gmAzTDmnnp+ljSB7CiX6rJKAMc3cHH2PTJP TD4NZ14g8nTmA1L7gVA8fwidznXUoposfX8gwTT8q55sJC2Gdz3o+Z0aHK1l/7sD 0dAM9hGfRIsrDr/pAkqvj6B4zJ5T7EXZphIScpTXpfAL1tioLRuLGhZGHJQmDpk= =yadz -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
