27;;; Infrastructure keys conventions.
28;;;
29;;; Infrastructure keys are unusual in that they don't usually have access
30;;; control lists. Instead, they're used either automatically or as a direct
31;;; result of action by a privileged user.
32;;;
33;;; Some key types (e.g., `gnupg') try to associate meaningful names with
34;;; their keys. When infrastructure keys are generated, parameters are
35;;; provided containing fragments of information which might be useful when
36;;; constructing such names. These parameters are described in detail
37;;; below. The default profile for each type of infrastructure key defines
38;;; the following properties constructed from these fragments.
39;;;
40;;; %description A short but readable description of the key,
41;;; including its purpose and label.
42;;;
43;;; %tag A condensed tag, containing the label and other
44;;; identifying features, suitable for inclusion in the
45;;; local part of an email address.
46;;;
47;;; Commands which generate infrastructure keys accept an option, usually
48;;; `-p', to specify a profile by name; the default, which is almost always
49;;; what you want, is to use the appropriate top-level profile defined here.
50;;;
51;;; All profiles for infrastructure keys include one of these four sections:
52;;;
53;;; %infra-asec `Asymmetric secrecy', i.e., public-key encryption and
54;;; decryption.
55;;;
56;;; %infra-aint `Asymmetric integrity', i.e., issuing and verifying
57;;; digital signatures.
58;;;
59;;; %infra-ssec `Symmetric secrecy', i.e., standard symmetric
60;;; encryption and decryption.
61;;;
62;;; %infra-sint `Symmetric integrity', i.e., generating and verifyng
63;;; message authentication code tags.
64;;;
65;;; Each of these simply includes two further sections (though they're useful
66;;; if you want to select different key types for different purposes): one of
67;;; `%infra-asymm' or `%infra-symm' according to whether the key is
68;;; asymmetric or symmetric, and one of `%infra-sec' or `%infra-int'
69;;; according to whether it's for secrecy or integrity.
70;;;
71;;; (Currently, there are no symmetric infrastructure keys.)
