OpenPGP Example Keys and Certificates

Abstract
The OpenPGP development community benefits from sharing samples of
signed or encrypted data. This document facilitates such
collaboration by defining a small set of OpenPGP certificates and
keys for use when generating such samples.

1. Introduction
The OpenPGP development community, in particular the e-mail
development community, benefits from sharing samples of signed and/or
encrypted data. Often the exact key material used does not matter
because the properties being tested pertain to implementation
correctness, completeness or interoperability of the overall system.
However, without access to the relevant secret key material, a sample
is useless.
This document defines a small set of OpenPGP certificates and secret
keys for use when generating or operating on such samples.
Samples are provided for two "personas", Alice and Bob. Alice uses
keys based on the Ed25519 elliptic curve algorithm, but Bob is a bit
behind the times and has a 3072-bit RSA key.
