New OpenPGP standard published

[David Shaw]

The new OpenPGP standard has been published.  It was assigned RFC
number 4880 (someone at the IETF has a sense of humor):

  http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4880.txt

In terms of GnuPG, we're almost completely compliant to it already as
GnuPG was updated as the various drafts of the standard were
discussed.  Upcoming versions of GPG will change the "--openpgp" flag
to mean the new RFC-4880.  The old behavior will be available as
"--rfc2440" (which already exists).
