### OpenPGP version 6
As of this writing (in 2023), [version 6 of OpenPGP](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-openpgp-crypto-refresh/) is approaching publication as an RFC.
The IETF working group's [charter](https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/openpgp/about/#autoid-1) centers around updating the cryptographic mechanisms, adding new algorithms, and deprecation of obsolete algorithms.
