G.r, Welcome to the Wikipedia. You appear to be a new editor, or at least have a new identity. Prowling around, perhaps starting from the community portal, at left, will turn up quite a lot, including how to edit articles pages, etiquette pages, and so on. Best wishes and enjoy your time here.

Your question, recently left in an edit summary at public key crypto, is of course a critical one, as is its obverse, how can one be sure a properly revoked public key is not furhter used.

This is a central problem in crypto engineering, and so for all crypto users and would-be users. WP's coverage of this abstract (and thus difficult for most people's brains to get an actual grasp on) notion is spotty and, in my view, not noticeably successful. I, and some others, keep trying. Perhaps you might contribute some editing time toward improvements?

Articles on cryptography can be tracked by referring to the WikiProject on Cryptography (see article cryptography for the exact link), if you're interestsed in joining those beavering away in the crypto corner.

Thanks for contributing to one of the crypto articles. It's always good to see a new vict, err, participant! ww 15:39, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
