Hello!
The latest release from the development branch of GnuPG is ready for
public consumption. This is a branch to create what will eventually
become GnuPG 1.4. It will change with greater frequency than the
1.2.x "stable" branch, which will mainly be updated for bug fix
reasons.
The more GnuPG-familiar user is encouraged try this release (and the
ones that will follow in the 1.3.x branch), and report back any
problems to gnupg-devel@gnupg.org. In return, you get the latest code
with the latest features.
This release brings development fairly close to a good point for 1.4.
If there is something that you do not like here, be it a missing
feature, a UI choice, or, well, anything, now is the time to speak up.
Once 1.3.x becomes the new stable, large changes will be unlikely.
While we obviously cannot guarantee that every suggestion will be
included, they will all be looked at.
As always, note that while this code is stable enough for many uses,
it is still the development branch. Mission-critical applications
should always use the 1.2.x stable branch.

Noteworthy changes in version 1.3.5 (2004-02-26)
- ------------------------------------------------
* 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.
* The last support for Elgamal sign+encrypt keys has been removed.
