After 5 years i thought it would be time for a new OpenPGP key. Also i wanted to migrate to an offline master key and subkeys that are stored on an OpenPGP smartcard.

My old key will continue to be valid for some time, but i prefer all future correspondence to come to the new one. I would also like this new key to be integrated into the web of trust. There is also a plaintext version of this message that is signed by both keys to certify the transition.

the old key was:

pub   rsa4096 2013-11-20 [SC] [expires: 2018-09-27]
      CBF53E306528F800E3AA4EAF32C61D34C09C6A34

And the new key is:

pub   rsa4096 2018-08-11 [C] [expires: 2020-08-10]
      C5BC7498F466D885188CB397CB06EA7B78DBE151

To fetch my new key from a public key server, you can simply do:

gpg --recv-key C5BC7498F466D885188CB397CB06EA7B78DBE151

If you already know my old key, you can now verify that the new key is signed by the old one:

gpg --check-sigs C5BC7498F466D885188CB397CB06EA7B78DBE151

If you are satisfied that you’ve got the right key, and the UIDs match what you expect, I’d appreciate it if you would sign my key:

gpg --sign-key C5BC7498F466D885188CB397CB06EA7B78DBE151

Lastly, if you could send me these signatures, i would appreciate it.

Please let me know if there is any trouble, and sorry for the inconvenience.
