Starting from where we are now, as far as I know there are no keyservers that sign their output, but there are keyservers that use TLS. And TLS does not have to be x.590. There is a draft spec for using openpgp keys with TLS http://tools.ietf.org/search/rfc5081 which is implemented in the GnuTLS library http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/gnutls.html - -- Best regards MFPA mailto:expires2...@ymail.com Teamwork is essential - it allows you to blame someone else -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQCVAwUBTB1z+aipC46tDG5pAQr/ywP9GRgIZrt/hWw/fKY3zXqDGQUCs4MfXoxQ 4BCzIyj5ZFyyVFMm7OsirkWSt0bF1LJCoOlZktk3e4vLaZ3L1A0d3Y0VKgZ0bbto 6ON1wyfJwwPwyElwqywpg0osSRmj8q1tMzanuGX8zmMv2yikUhkoNwjOCxDhByGo zS31cBkMofQ= =5j+v -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
