This is to help prevent pollution of + the (as yet unused) IETF notation namespace. + + * Multiple trust models are now supported via the --trust-model + option. The options are "openpgp" (web-of-trust plus trust + signatures), "classic" (web-of-trust only), and "always" + (identical to the --always-trust option). + + * The --personal-{cipher|digest|compression}-preferences are now + consulted to get default algorithms before resorting to the + last-ditch defaults of --s2k-cipher-algo, SHA1, and ZIP + respectively. This allows a user to set algorithms to use in a + safe manner so they are used when legal to do so, without + forcing them on for all messages. + + * New --primary-keyring option to designate the keyring that the + user wants new keys imported into. + + * --s2k-digest-algo is now used for all password mangling. + Earlier versions used both --s2k-digest-algo and --digest-algo + for passphrase mangling. + + * Handling of --hidden-recipient or --throw-keyid messages is now + easier - the user only needs to give their passphrase once, and + GnuPG will try it against all of the available secret keys. + + * Care is taken to prevent compiler optimization from removing + memory wiping code.
