New Public PGP Key

I’ve improved my cryptographic infrastructure, moving from my old 1024bits DSA key (since 2006, yay!) to a new and shiny 2048bits RSA key using SHA256 digest.

I’ve had three public keys until now: 2002 (lost keyring and revoke certificate, sigh), 2002 again (I can’t remember why I revoked it), and 2006 (the one I’ve used until now).

I don’t know why I care about this stuff, because I think I’ve never signed a mail or received a ciphered message. But hey! Nobody knows.

Anyway, last upgrade was because SHA1 is going insecure since 2006. Yes, three years before upgrade. Don’t worry, as I said… I’ve never used it.

You can find my public key at the usual place. New fingerprint is: F014 056F 18EB 14C1 7293 A337 ED2C 8FDF EA11 2704.

Some day I’ll be in a signing party. It should be fun.
