<div>Thanks for the links listed below. I did see them before but re-read them and picked up a bit more information. It seems like the pubring is more of an indexed database to allow for faster lookups and maybe. I'm not sure if that also added other features as well.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I'm still a bit confused on the changes in secring. How does it come up with the names for those "new" keys as it doesn't seem to corrolate with anything I can see on the keys.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>For them to go away from the OpenPGP standard it obviously had to make sense to them, I'm just trying to understand (actaully learn more about) the reasons for the changes.</div>
