What about the two big free X.509 suppliers (CACert and Thawte)
do they sign OpenPGP keys?
Thawte used to, but doesn't anymore. CACert does.

They are not interoperable.
Depends on what you rate to be interoperable (see below).

X.509 as well as OpenPGP are just package aroung the product. You can
use the private and public keys themselfs to package them as OpenPGP or
X.509. So this way you can have one and the same key pair to work in
both worlds.

Hi.
This is perhaps a stupid question but how far are these two standards
interoperable?
I've seen a document that proposes some things in that area
(http://www.imc.org/ietf-openpgp/mail-archive/msg09930.html).
My question now:
Can X.509 certificates be used to sign/certificate OpenPGP

CAcert offers a GPG signature if your persona has been verified, and I

Uhm,.. but that way I create a NEW key,... correct?
I was looking for a signature for my EXISTING key.
