After literally many hours of research, I have come across only one
document that explains part of 2440 in a understandable format and that is:
OpenPGP is quite complex (but not as complex as some other protocols),
so it takes a while to understand all the details. A lot of things
have been explained on this mailing list here more than one time.
Have a look at the archives.
And there are at least 3 implementations which you can consult to
check how a detail is actually done.
Come on people who are developing this standard - if you want it to take
off, help people and/or make something available to people like me and
PGP is around for nearly a decade now. OpenPGP is just an enhancement
on the PGP 2 data formats.
other project directors so we can develop the OpenPGP standard and not get
bogged down cryptanalysing the 2440 document into plain text!
I think Jon did a fine job as editor of this document and to me it is
an easy to understand specification.
