+OpenCDK (Open Crypto Development Kit) provides basic parts of the OpenPGP
+message format. The aim of the library is *not* to replace any available
+OpenPGP version. There will be no real support for key management (sign,
+revoke, alter preferences, ...) and some other parts are only rudimentary
+available. The main purpose is to handle and understand OpenPGP packets and
+to use basic operations. For example to encrypt/decrypt or to sign/verify
+and packet routines.
