Re: CERT/IRT object in the RIPE database

My only observation, made after the presentation, is that the PGP key ID can no longer be assumed to be unique. The KeyID is a hash value and there were reports last year of collisions having occurred where two different keys produced the same KeyID.

not exactly. it has been shown to be theoretically possible. it has also been shown not to have actually occurred in the public pgp web of trust. randy
