It's pretty unreasonable to think a piece of software from 2003, meant as a drop-in replacement for software written in 1993, would implement a feature that first appeared in GnuPG around 2013.[1] If your next question is, "well, why doesn't SKS get modernized?", the answer is "with what personnel and what budget?" SKS doesn't even have a maintainer, for God's sake. [1] That "around 2013" is a guess: I don't know off the top of my head when that was first added to GnuPG. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
