For my understanding GnuPG is standard conform and creates a "DSA primary key (1024 bits - not "DSA2") with an Elgamal subkey per default."
It was discussed in May to change this standard to 2048-bit RSA key: http://www.imc.org/ietf-openpgp/mail-archive/msg33227.html I am planing to create some new keys which will be used for the next couple of years. Therefore I am wondering if it is a good idea to create 2048-bit RSA keys already although it is not standard (yet). So potentially it could cause incompatibility issues. I suppose most of the correspondents (>90%) use GnuPG and thus should not have any problems with the keys. Do you have further information about the coming standard key type? Are there any other obstacles or implications to consider and what is your advice?
