## About `openpgp4fpr` (copied from [effigies/openpgp4info](https://github.com/effigies/openpgp4info))
In 2010, the [Monkeysphere](http://web.monkeysphere.info/) project [introduced](http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.security.monkeysphere/592) the `openpgp4fpr:<FINGERPRINT>` scheme for sharing OpenPGP version 4 key fingerprints, where `<FINGERPRINT>` is the full 40 hex character fingerprint of a primary key, and has since been adopted in vCards for sharing public keys.
In 2010, the [Monkeysphere](http://web.monkeysphere.info/) project [introduced](http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.security.monkeysphere/592) the `openpgp4fpr:<FINGERPRINT>` scheme for sharing OpenPGP version 4 key fingerprints, where `<FINGERPRINT>` is the full 40 hex character fingerprint of a master key, and has since been adopted in vCards for sharing public keys.
Perhaps more significantly, several Android applications ([APG](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.thialfihar.android.apg)/[OpenKeychain](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.sufficientlysecure.keychain), and the Guardian Project's [GnuPG port](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=info.guardianproject.gpg)) now accept this scheme as a means of quickly exchanging public keys via QR codes. The Android "intents" interface paves the way for `openpgp4fpr` URIs to become increasingly common.
