Sorry, I didn't say clear enough what I meant. For me personally it wouldn't make any difference, if I sign a key or trust it (or better: the owner) ultimately. In the end both keys are valid. And for others there would also be no difference, if I would sign a key only locally. Only if I sign a key and upload it, it would make a difference because the owner trust only affects the keys in my keyring, but the signed key affects the validation, if other people own it.

Practically it depends on if I upload the key. If I don't upload it, it wouldn't make any difference. But, as you said, the semantics are different. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
