-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1,SHA512 Wed, 05 Mar 2014 14:14:12 +0100 My GPG key from 2006 has been a 1024 bit DSA key, which uses a 160 bit SHA-1 hash. As per the Debian Guidance [1,2], this is not ideal, and I have been thinking about moving away to a stronger key with a stronger hash for quite some time. Finally, in the light of the recent global surveillance disclosures around the NSA, the GCHQ and other secret services, I have decided to move to a new OpenPGP key of a larger size and stronger hash. As such, I will be slowly transitioning away from my old keys. My old keys will continue to be valid for some time to come, but I would prefer all new correspondence to use the new one. I will also be switching my outgoing signatures onto the new key. For this to work well, I would like my new key to be re-integrated into the web of trust. So, I have signed this message with both my old and my new keys, to certify the transaction. The old keys were: pub 1024D/17DF3795 2006-05-26 key fingerprint = 742C ED8B 827C C007 2331 1C89 74D2 915D 17DF 3795 pub 2048R/58E7B5BD 2013-08-26 [expired: 2014-01-16] key fingerprint = 8569 2983 C26A D3E1 0F6A 277A 4310 4F2B 58E7 B5BD And the new key is: pub 4096R/1CA1C3A9 2014-03-04 Key fingerprint = A4B7 19DB AFEA 866F 3377 EEC4 3AFB 59AC 1CA1 C3A9 To fetch my new key from a public key server, you can simply do: gpg --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net --recv-key 1CA1C3A9 If you already know my old key, you can now verify that the new key is signed by the old one: gpg --check-sigs 1CA1C3A9 If you don't already know my old key, you can check the fingerprint against the one above: gpg --fingerprint 1CA1C3A9 If you are satisfied that you have got the right key, and the UIDs match what you expect, I would appreciate if you would sign my key: gpg --sign-key 1CA1C3A9 In case you have signed my key, you can either upload the signed key directly to any keyserver: gpg --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net --send-key 1CA1C3A9 or send me the signed key by email. Please let me know if there is any trouble, and sorry for the inconvenience.
