Hi Werner,
> I can only repeat that stripping the User-ID from a key is Bad Thing
I've actually never seen this argument in full. I just checked T4393 again, the
only explanation you give is "to avoid problems we had with PGP2". Would you
care to elaborate?
> The pleaded GDPR issue is artificial
IIRC Kristian very much doesn't believe in the GDPR, and yet he *just*
discontinued the pool because it caused him too much GDPR legal trouble, which
is a direct consequence of SKS publishing email addresses without explicit
consent. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding what you are describing as "artificial"?

I'm inclined to agree on this one, actually. :) Maybe I'll rephrase the privacy
policy of keys.o.o one of these days, but so far it worked out ok.
