Should pgg be mark obsolete?

[Leo]

Hi there,

With EPG to supersede PGG, should PGG be marked obsolete?

I would tend to think so, yes, but I'd first like to have the opinion of
PGG author(s) and users.  Anybody objects to marking PGG as obsolete?

There seems to be no objections. Shall we go ahead marking it obsolete?

Apparently, PGG is still used by allout.el, so we should try and get Ken
to update his code to use EPG instead before we mark PGG obsolete.
But please add a node about this to pgg.el (something like "On its way
to obsolescence, waiting for allout.el to switch to EPG.").

first, thanks for looking out for allout.  i need to investigate the switch
to epg, hope i'll have the time soon.  time is a challenge, plus i do some
tricky things with the pgg password cache that i would need to duplicate in
the transition, and am nervous that will increase the challenge
significantly.  i'm not sure anyone can advise me without investigating the
allout code more than they would wish, but if so let me know.
