I really should know the answer to this, but I don't. In the  
following example, what does the output really mean?

kremer:~ 501: gpg --recv-key  
0x07C24D9BE3C0FA25                                             14:02:00
gpg: requesting key E3C0FA25 from hkp server wwwkeys.pgp.net
gpg: key E3C0FA25: public key "Dave Aitel (Immunity, Inc)  
<dave at immunitysec.com>" imported
gpg: 3 marginal(s) needed, 1 complete(s) needed, classic trust model
gpg: depth: 0  valid:   2  signed:   7  trust: 0-, 0q, 0n, 0m, 0f, 2u
gpg: depth: 1  valid:   7  signed:  10  trust: 3-, 0q, 0n, 0m, 4f, 0u
gpg: depth: 2  valid:  10  signed:   3  trust: 8-, 0q, 0n, 0m, 2f, 0u
gpg: depth: 3  valid:   2  signed:   0  trust: 2-, 0q, 0n, 0m, 0f, 0u
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg:               imported: 1

It's telling me something about the chain of trust, what I'm unclear  
on is all the details.
