OpenPGP transition statement
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1,SHA512
Sat May 7 04:34:52 UTC 2016
I've recently set up a new OpenPGP key and will be transitioning away from my
old one.
The old key will be valid for a little while, but I prefer all future
correspondence to use the new one. I would also like this new key to be
re-integrated into the web of trust. This message is signed by both keys to
certify the transition.
the old key is:
pub dsa1024/0x53E0C20E48C7AF0C 2009-02-17 [expires: 2016-08-05]
Key fingerprint = 17F4 998F 157E A94D 935A 0952 53E0 C20E 48C7 AF0C
And the new key is:
pub rsa4096/0x1CED67750173FC1C 2016-05-06 [expires: 2018-05-06]
Key fingerprint = 6B14 7327 595D 2998 54FE D9D5 1CED 6775 0173 FC1C
To fetch the new key from a public key server, you can do:
gpg2 --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-key 0x1CED67750173FC1C
If you already know my old key, you can now verify that the new key is signed by
the old one:
gpg2 --check-sigs 0x1CED67750173FC1C
If you don't already know my old key, or you just want to be double extra
paranoid, you can check the fingerprint against the one above:
gpg --fingerprint 0x1CED67750173FC1C
