Good news! The HKP draft has been adopted by the IETF #OpenPGP Working Group, the first official step towards publication as an RFC 🤩

It is now known as draft-IETF-openpgp-hkp, which replaces draft-gallagher-openpgp-hkp, which itself replaced draft-shaw-openpgp-hkp.

It has been a long couple of decades 😂

Playing around with Sequoia-PGP again. And it just strikes me how easy it makes it. This time I played with sqop instead of sq.

Try doing that gpg without needing any $HOME/.gnupg directory. And then try putting that in a script run by some locked-down user via a cron job.

(I know this should be signed as well, not dug into that yet.)

I've been running #Tumpa CLI for a while on a few selected git repositories, where I use #yubikey for the #PGP key storage.

Today I have globally replaced gpg2 with tcli and tclig in the git config. It does the job very well and is far less annoying than gpg ever was. The tcli agent is also much more nicely behaving than the gpg-agent.

Thank you, @kushal for an excellent work on Tumpa!

And I'm even more impressed that Tumpa even handles multiple Yubikeys plugged in in parallel. It selects the right key for the right identity and the tcli agent even caches the needed passphrase/PIN as expected. This is something which was a complete mess with GnuPG.
