Heiko Schaefer	5621dfa79c	avoid using the technical term "key" as a generic word	2023-11-25 19:29:18 +01:00
Heiko Schaefer	b121676a0d	i think "demonstrate" gestures partly in the wrong direction. ... much agility is already built in. the point here is not that more agility can be built in on short notice (even though that is also true). but rather that OpenPGP already allows users to make a lot of decisions about which mechanisms to use, right now.	2023-11-25 19:26:55 +01:00
Heiko Schaefer	0a2bccb380	generalize: User Attributes are uncommon, but we should include them	2023-11-25 19:20:42 +01:00

Heiko Schaefer	111f6cca41	attempt at footnote with more detail on fingerprint uniqueness. the exact content might need more tweaking.	2023-11-25 18:39:02 +01:00
Heiko Schaefer	a431853832	zoom_certificates doesn't talk about private keys (anymore). de-emphasize the packet-level chapter (it's still very unclear to me how many readers should look at those chapters).	2023-11-25 18:24:36 +01:00
Heiko Schaefer	3b0dfd5cd7	move contextualization paragraphs up to the first block	2023-11-25 18:14:45 +01:00
Heiko Schaefer	06c40b0275	i'm uncomfortable offering an explanation for this recommendation ... (i don't think security is a concern here. maybe interoperability?)	2023-11-25 17:49:35 +01:00

Heiko Schaefer	e49d1e69af	clarify certification text ... And use Bob's real fingerprint.	2023-11-25 15:57:00 +01:00
Heiko Schaefer	4b9c064a8b	it seems confusing to imply that bob will necessarily distribute a third-party certification, this is only true some of the time	2023-11-25 15:43:24 +01:00

Heiko Schaefer	5f694e8c23	clarification: "append" implies "stored at the end of a file." this is not generally true for these two cases. ... I now realize that this is weird: we're claiming that certificates are "append only". However, the meaning of that term, in OpenPGP is ... not about the location of additions. Rather it just means "we only get to add packets, not remove them". Regardless of packet order.	2023-11-25 15:11:17 +01:00
