Hmm I guess my policy has a dual-purpose -- key policy (how secure is it etc.) and signing policy (how well do I check other keys). The latter needs only a self-signature, the former is another matter. I don't think someone else can vouch for the facts about how I store my key, as they have no way to check -- even if I use a smart-card, how do they know I didn't generate off-card and keep a backup somewhere? -- Jerome Baum Hessenweg 222 48432 Rheine GERMANY tel +49-1578-8434336 email jer...@jeromebaum.com web www.jeromebaum.com -- Einigkeit und Recht und Modeerscheinung -- PGP: A0E4 B2D4 94E6 20EE 85BA E45B 63E4 2BD8 C58C 753A PGP: 2C23 EBFF DF1A 840D 2351 F5F5 F25B A03F 2152 36DA -- http://five.sentenc.es _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
