This is probably Lucky Green's announcement - don't forget to read
also Ian Goldberg's reply.  No need to change the suggested keysize,
remember that you should make the weakest link stronger to get better
protection and not one of the ver bold ones.  Already updated the
latest zlib, fixed the ssh bug of the month, audited the GnuPG code,
installed a stronger lock at your door, did a security check of all
your friends?
