Noteworthy changes in version 2.1.17 (unreleased)
Noteworthy changes in version 2.1.17 (2016-12-20)
-------------------------------------------------
* gpg: By default new keys expire after 2 years.
* gpg: New command --quick-set-expire to conveniently change the
expiration date of keys.
* gpg: Option and command names have been changed for easier
comprehension. The old names are still available as aliases.
* gpg: Improved the TOFU trust model.
* gpg: New option --default-new-key-algo.
* scd: Support OpenPGP card V3 for RSA.
* dirmngr: Support for the ADNS library has been removed. Instead
William Ahern's Libdns is now source included and used on all
platforms. This enables Tor support on all platforms. The new
option --standard-resolver can be used to disable this code at
runtime. In case of build problems the new configure option
--disable-libdns can be used to build without Libdns.
* dirmngr: Lazily launch ldap reaper thread.
* tools: New options --check and --status-fd for gpg-wks-client.
* The UTF-8 byte order mark is now skipped when reading conf files.
* Fixed many bugs and regressions.
* Major improvements to the test suite. For example it is possible
to run the external test suite of GPGME.
