Thank you, Jakob, for this info.  I haven't read all the GnuPG Handbook,
yet.

I am now reading all past mails to this list about "trust", am also
reading GnuPG Privacy Handbook; all while reading the `man 1 gpg`.  I
will also be reading the GnuPG FAQ.

So, it will take some time for me to getting back on this thread.

Hopefully, after this investment in knowledge, I will get an
understanding about the concept of Trust with GnuPG, the Web of Trust
concept; in order to write Internet Log articles (in a Web Log -- Blog
-- and in a Gopher Log -- Phlog) to clarify people about these concepts.

Unfortunately, I believe there is a big misunderstanding about what the
Web of Trust is, what is Trust to GnuPG, what is Ownertrust in GnuPG,
and what is validity in GnuPG.  I, myself, struggle with these concepts,
even after having read a book about PGP 7 and an introduction to
cryptography.

Lastly, and most important, I want to thank Werner and all the GnuPG
Hackers, for making GnuPG a reality.  I really love this project.  I
also support the LibrePGP initiative; not meaning a defensive move only,
but as a way for the future.  Finally, thank you for you that keep this
list a positive and welcoming environment for learning about GnuPG!

I will be coming to this thread, when the time has come.

Cheers for Freedom,
