I think the warning would be a good idea because it should serve to reduce accidental uploading of keys (except by those who view such warnings as "noise" and just click through without really reading them). Since the keyserver-no-modify flag is set by default in GnuPG and this warning would be triggered for a large percentage of keys, why bother checking for the flag? "Do you really want to publish this key to a keyserver?" could be asked every time the user told the client to upload any key, perhaps also displaying some info about the key and the server. - -- Best regards MFPA mailto:expires2...@ymail.com If it aint broke, fix it till it is broke! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQE7BAEBCgClBQJNbYFUnhSAAAAAAEAAVXNpZ25pbmdfa2V5X0lEIHNpZ25pbmdf a2V5X0ZpbmdlcnByaW50IEAgIE1hc3Rlcl9rZXlfRmluZ2VycHJpbnQgQThBOTBC OEVBRDBDNkU2OSBCQTIzOUI0NjgxRjFFRjk1MThFNkJENDY0NDdFQ0EwMyBAIEJB MjM5QjQ2ODFGMUVGOTUxOEU2QkQ0NjQ0N0VDQTAzAAoJEKipC46tDG5pFKAEAIXA JlNpZtG1aUk4j+t25EVUMh/Wwx02fSLwsRfmjgb8W46B6ZWUJz3qkU0oum+HdKQn U/ADiI1jQsS33jcKtqHQd6okI72r5w4dEWfFc7E8Y0c42g4x/1n1kJd5ofSjivZV DxQf3NC4rwtYNebSThraOasVkTmr2V+CQHnfw04v =/QiR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
