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.

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

(i don't think security is a concern here. maybe interoperability?)

clarify certification text

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

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.

Improve on original text: "Elements" encompass both "components" and "signatures." Regarding malicious addition, we care about both.
Additionally, "typically" reads confusingly weak to me, erring on the side of "maybe too strong" with "will" seems better.
