Hi Werner and all GnuPG hackers,
I would like to ask if it is possible in a future version of
GnuPG to have a new OpenPGP packet defined, which would allow
GnuPG users that their public key can be no longer uploaded
to the the old SKS keyserver Network, so that SKS rejects the
OpenPGP Public Key Block? Maybe this packet request could be
added in form of the key-generation process, so that GnuPG
users will be asked by GnuPG if they like to have old-style
SKS support or not.
I ask this because I can imagine that some people do not want
that their new public key block is accidently uploaded and
distributed without their consent.
It is assumed that the SKS Network will not go away in the near
future and it is assumed once such a new non-compatible SKS packet
would be supported by GnuPG it could be quickly supported by modern
Hagrid, Mailvelope and hockeypuck.
Best Regards
Stefan
