You should read RFC 4880 (or just skim it and read the parts that most
interest you):
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4880
Thanks for all.
I didn't know that fingerprint was calculated with a timestamp. Do you have any
idea of the reason(s) to do that ?
(that change lot of things, and I'd also like to know if there is a way to
query for specific keys).
(thanks for the link but i don't even know the difference betw

I have 3 questions :
1- As ECC crypto is soon available in gnupg, I am asking if sks key servers
won't have problems managing them.
(That is a great feature I am waiting for to use gpg with signing chains)
But the ECC curves are smaller than RSA or DSA keys, full collisions have more
chances
