G'day,

I have a few questions about OpenPGP. XEP-0027 has been obsoleted by council on 26/03/2014, but I can't see no explanation.

OpenPGP is not the best for instant messaging (and OTR is the de facto standard), but still it's interesting for normal messages (e.g. with an SMTP gateway), and signatures, and offline messages, and probably other use cases.
In addition, it would be nice to have a way to link the public key.

So why OpenPGP has been obsoleted ? Is is still possible to see it coming back throught eventually a new more proper XEP ? I don't mean use it as the main e2e encryption model, but being able to use it with gateways or to diffuse the public key seems important to me.

Thanks
Goffi
