Hi Sean,

I have a few keys from the early days of pgp in my keyring (1993 and 1994), of which I can't remember their passphrase, and there is no way of revoking them. They probably won't work anymore with the current gnupg out of the box, without using some special backwards compatibility options... (Probably --pgp2 is needed to use them if I could remember their passphrases ;-)).


Bye, Wilfred.
