key different in gpg 1.0?
Hello,
I just upgraded to vesion 1.0 of gpg from .9.5 and my key is different.
After installing 1.0, I did an export of my key and it was much longer than
the key from the prior version. why is this? does the old key still work
with stuff i encrypt with version 1?

thank you,
brian

Why did you `export' your key? Doesn't 1.0 work with 0.9.x keyfiles?

Anyway, for key exporting, the key must be edited first, is there
anything that could be changed and consequently change the key size?
