Date: 2014-02-18 For a number of reasons I've recently set up a new OpenPGP key, and will be transitioning away from my old one. The old key will continue to be valid for some time, but I prefer all future correspondence to come to the new one. I would also like this new key to be re-integrated into the web of trust. This message is signed by both keys to certify the transition. The old key was: pub 1024D/57DC0078 2008-12-03 [expired: 2013-12-03] Key fingerprint = 9FF9 17C7 6563 CC6F 486F 19E1 8C37 6831 57DC 0078 And the new key is: pub 4096R/29485B97 2014-02-18 Key fingerprint = 7B66 9D4E 34C3 DE6C 928A 317B 9640 E4FA 2948 5B97 To fetch the full key from a public key server, you can simply do: gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-key 0x9640E4FA29485B97 If you already know my old key, you can now verify that the new key is signed by the old one: gpg --check-sigs 0x9640E4FA29485B97 If you don't already know my old key, or you just want to be double extra paranoid, you can check the fingerprint against the one above: gpg --fingerprint 0x9640E4FA29485B97 Theodoros Chatzimichos
