  <title>Share your public keys</title>

  <p>If you want people to send you encrypted communication, you must share
  your <gui>GnuPG key</gui> with them. To share your key with a selected few
  people, <link xref="pgp-export">export it</link> and mail
  the resulting keyfile to them. To allow anyone to
  <link xref="pgp-retrieve-remote">retrieve</link> and use your public key,
  publish it on a key server.</p>

      checkbox to ensure that any modifications to a key on the key server,
      like a signature, are updated on your copy of the key too.</p>
