Hi, list.

I'd like to send someone the smallest possible version (armored) of my public 
key containing only the primary key/primary uid/self sig.

At the moment, I don't see any way to do this, other than deleting all extra 
data locally, exporting the key, and then re(stor/fetch)ing it from a 
keyserver.

I've looked through the FAQ on gnupg.org, but couldn't find anything relevant. 
There was a section on restoring a public key from a private one, but that 
seems to be more complicated than the way described above.

Is there an easier way?

Thanks,
Dmitri
