Noteworthy changes in version 1.3.5 (unreleased)
------------------------------------------------
* New --min-cert-level option to disregard key signatures that are
under a specified level.
* New --max-output option to limit the amount of plaintext output
generated by GnuPG. This option can be used by programs which
call GnuPG to process messages that may result in plaintext
larger than the calling program is prepared to handle. This is
sometimes called a "Decompression Bomb".
* New --list-config command for frontends and other programs that
call GnuPG. See doc/DETAILS for the specifics of this.
* Some performance improvements with large keyrings. See
--enable-key-cache=SIZE in the README file for details.
* Some portability fixes for the OpenBSD/i386, HPPA, and AIX
platforms.
* New keyserver-option "http-proxy" to specify which proxy to use
in the config file without using environment variables.
* Added support for storing, retrieving, and searching for keys in
LDAP servers. Note that this is different than the "LDAP
keyserver" which was already (and remains) supported.
* Added support for TLS and LDAPS session encryption for LDAP.
* --show-session-key/--override-session-key now works with
--symmetric messages.
* The configure options --enable-rsa and --disable-rsa can now be
used to enable or disable RSA support. This can be useful for
embedded use where space is tight. --enable-minimal includes
--disable-rsa.
* Some performance improvements with large keyrings.
* Some portability fixes for the OpenBSD/i386 and HPPA platforms.
* The last support for Elgamal sign+encrypt keys has been removed.
