Top level home page for www.pgp.net at cam.ac.uk.pgp.net [08040909]

The pgp.net domain is currently primarily concerned with making access to users PGP keys as simple as possible. It does have a list of some of the servers which hold PGP sources (as on the TERENA Secure Email CD), but this role is secondary.

Any offers to populate this page will be greatfully accepted. The main areas are:

Released: the Email Key Server -- keys.pgp.net
Released: the PGP 5.0 compatible WWW Key Servers -- wwwkeys.pgp.net (replacing the old www.pgp.net)
Released: the FTP Key Servers -- ftp.pgp.net (also holds PGP code)
Released: comp.security.pgp FAQ as a tree (or monolithic as HTML and ASCII)

Anyone using (or contemplating using) PGP 5 should read Brad Knowles' PGP 5 Tips on how to get things to actually work.

Known future developments in PGP servers and related subjects are:

Michael Graff <explorer@flame.org> is working on a "2nd Generation" key server, based on a DNS style distributed & delegated systems.
Marc Horowitz has re-implemented the "current" email based key server, using C instead of perl, and using C instead of PGP to manage keys. Contact "Jeffrey I. Schiller" <jis@mit.edu> for more details.
