    - Skip non-Plaintext packets when decrypting; this skips Signature
      packets for 'encrypted & signed' messages. This is a temporary
      measure; in the future it would be nice to automatically verify
      the signatures. Thanks to Vipul for the patch.
    - Allow a KeyID param to decrypt that specifies the key ID to use
      when decrypting the message, in case there are multiple session
      key packets. Thanks to Vipul for the patch.

    - Added support for clear-text signatures, both creating (Clearsign
      param to 'sign') and verifying (transparent support).
    - For the time being Makefile.PL will not give a choice of
      public key algorithms; you will have to install support for
      both DSA and RSA. This will last until the test suite has been
      reworked to auto-detect which module is installed and run the
      tests with the appropriate key types.

0.11  2001-07-29
    - Added support for symmetric-key encrypted session key packets,
      which means that Crypt::OpenPGP now supports "conventional"
      encryption of data, in addition to the public-key encryption that

=head1 DESCRIPTION

I<Crypt::OpenPGP::Message> provides a container for a sequence of PGP
packets. It transparently handles ASCII-armoured messages, as well as
cleartext signatures.

=head1 USAGE

=head2 Crypt::OpenPGP::Message->new( %arg )

Constructs a new I<Crypt::OpenPGP::Message> object, presumably to be
filled with some data, where the data is a serialized stream of PGP
packets.
