But the two mechanisms offered have major drawbacks: KEY lets you include either the full OpenPGP key (very large with modern RSA keys!) or a download URL (not cryptographically verifiable). the syntax for KEY has also changed from version to version of vCard :( I'll try to write up the proposed OPENPGP4FPR: field more explicitly since it is both short and cryptographically verifiable. You can of course combine OPENPGP4FPR with the KEY field in a vCard record if you like. Regards, --dkg
