Merit transitioned to PGPKEY authentication last Sunday, 7/30 as
previously announced. As part of the conversion process we created
new 'key-cert' objects from our version 5 rings on behalf of those
PGP users who had already registered their public key with us. For
version 2 keys and other non-version 5 keys the key is displayed as a
version 5 key equivalent in the 'key-cert' objects.
>From a functional standpoint this does not impact the database submission
verification process. For example, submissions signed with a valid
version 2 key will correctly verify against our version 5 ring.
For users who wish to display their non-version 5 key in their 'key-cert'
object instead of a version 5 equivalent, simply re-submit your
'key-cert' object with the key you wish to use to .
This is an artifact of the conversion process and will not affect future
transactions. 'key-cert' objects will appear in the database as
submitted by the user.
Follow-up questions or comments should be directed to .
