I welcome any comment on the replacement key draft that just got
posted.
The point, in case you haven't seen the draft yet, is a way for a user
to specify the key that replaces a revoked or expired key. General
purpose implementations can use this information to use the new key
(presumably with a warning) if a user requests the old one. It would
also be useful to automatically fetch the new key from keyservers.
Keyservers could use this to present the proper key (again, with a
warning) if an expired/revoked key is requested.
In particular I'd like to hear opinions on the variable sized
subpacket. There are other variable sized subpackets in OpenPGP, but
I wonder if this one might not save us much.
