That depends a lot on what those prior conversations are. If I've built up trust in RM because I think he's been up-front and candid, and FM comes along and presents a credible threat to RM's identity, then yes, I have to revisit my trust decision in RM: I can no longer be confident he's been up-front and candid. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
