I am trying to get GPG approved for use in our corporate network.  However
the general reluctance to use free-ware open source has come up.  I have
been asked to provide a white-paper or some other document showing that for
the features implemented GPG is true and faithful to the openPGP standard.

I have a document from our PGP rep which highlights the lack of support
inherent in open source.  The only functionality missing (according to the
PGP document) is stuff PGP added above and beyond the openPGP spec.

Can anyone point to anything written by someone I can take to my management?
