This has been asked a few times. The last time it was asked, the developers said that it would create a lot of problems. How should the money be split up? While the developers certainly deserve credit, so too do people on mailing lists who help newbies, so too do people who search through the code and find bugs, so too do... etcetera, etcetera. However, GnuPG is--as you can guess from its name--a GNU project, which means it's closely affiliated with the Free Software Foundation.

HowTo make a donation to gpg...
Hi, I'm really exaltet about gpg and want to support the project with a little donation. I think, if I can't help to develop such a good project, the team should get a little bit support. The most OS-projects are better than commercial products. A donation is the least, that I (and other users) can do. On the gpg-website I've searched for a paypal-donation button or something else... Nothing. I think, the gpg-team should install a possibility for this on the website.

The PGP GUI in freeware mode should continue working. The paid elements include the email plugins and PGPdisk. It is fairly easy to import your entire keyring set to GnuPG gpg --import \path\to\secring.skr gpg --import \path\to\pubring.pkr The above works at this time (PGP 9.x and GnuPG 1.4). It will quire possibly change at some future date. The canonical method is to export the keys from PGP and import them into GnuPG. Adding '--import-options import-local-sigs' to the command line will import local signatures. -- John P. Clizbe Inet: John (a) Mozilla-Enigmail.org You can't spell fiasco without SCO.

This is not exactly true. You can certainly delete the packet that says "this key has a designated revoker", but note that there is no way to undo the designation if the key has been distributed. It's like a signature from a key you don't own: you could delete the signature packet, but you can't revoke it. Designated revoker signatures are irrevocable as part of the OpenPGP protocol, even though they are issued from your own key. What PGP is doing is just deleting the packet. If you sync with a keyserver that has your key, the packet will just come back. All that said, yes, GPG has no way to delete designated revoker packets. The only way to do it is export your public key and run 'gpgsplit' on it. Then delete the packet you want to get rid of and 'cat' the packets back together.
