"primary subkey" doesn't make much sense. I'm pretty sure Robert means "primary key".
Sorry, a little bit of inside baseball there [1]. tl;dr version -- Daniel's right. Longer version follows. At work I'm twiddling about with an OpenPGP parser and for various reasons you really don't want me to get into, the class that defines primary keys is a subclass of the class that defines subkeys. It seems backwards, but needs to be that way to preserve Liskov substitutability. As a result, I wind up talking about "primary subkeys" because in my head I'm talking about the PrimarySubkey class. :) [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inside_baseball_%28metaphor%29 _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
