@pgpkeys
thanks for the update! So what does that mean for people running WKD's with existing keys? What changes do we need to make?

@chiefbongo@mastodon.social your WKD server will continue to work with existing keys, there will be no rush to turn off client support. PGP standards tend to have a very long half life! It will get tricky though with future pqc keys. If they are gnupg compatible, it may not be possible to serve them from HKP (because only gnupg can parse them), and if they are openpgp compatible, it may not be *wise* to serve them from WKD (because gnupg may break). It’s a *mess*.
