@duxsco@fedifreu.de The good thing is that no one is forced to deal with GnuPG's increasingly odd choices.
My perspective is that there is really only one sensible path forward: The formats that are developed by the OpenPGP WG at the IETF.
There are half a dozen independent implementations of both RFC 9580 and draft-ietf-openpgp-pqc.
It's clear that there is a lot of consensus, and will to modernize in a collaborative fashion.

@duxsco@fedifreu.de This is of course complicated by GnuPG effectively attempting to derail these developments But I don't think there is anything constructive left to do, in that regard. Many people have tried to build many bridges. To no avail. The only remaining option is to try and protect captive GnuPG user bases from the fallout, as much as possible. This is the goal of @freepg@infosec.exchange The GnuPG situation is not great. But I think the ecosystem is being as constructive as circumstances allow. Which is nice
