[Announce] New signing key

[Werner Koch]

Hi!

The key used to sign GnuPG releases expired at the end of last year.  I
prolonged the lifetime of that key for another 6 months to avoid the
frequently asked question if signatures made in the past by an expired
key are now invalid (in short: they are not).

I will sign future distributions with this new 2048-bit RSA key which
has also been generated on a smartcard:

  pub   2048R/4F25E3B6 2011-01-12 [expires: 2019-12-31]
        Key fingerprint = D869 2123 C406 5DEA 5E0F  3AB5 249B 39D2 4F25 E3B6
  uid                  Werner Koch (dist sig)
  sub   2048R/AC87C71A 2011-01-12 [expires: 2019-12-31]

Please get a copy of the key, either from the attachment, a keyserver or
using one of these commands:

  gpg --fetch-key  finger:wk 'at' g10code 'dot' com

  gpg --fetch-key  http://werner.eifelkommune.de/mykey.asc

[Please replace 'at' and 'dot' as usual and use gpg2 if you like]

The key has been signed by my main key 1E42B367.  The authentication
subkey listed above is currently not used.  Note also that my old
standard key 5B0358A2 expires in 6 months and won't be prolonged.
1E42B367 is now well connected in the Web of Trust.


Shalom-Salam,

   Werner
