Well, Darxus doesn't absolutely need to be there provided that all those who want to partake in the keysigning send their keys to a keyserver today some time, retrieve everyone else's keys from that keyserver, and print our own copies of the fingerprints (which, really, everyone should do anyway... or, at least, compare the fingerprints on Darxus's printouts with those on the keys you sign at home) tomorrow. In fact, as near as I can tell, the only new key that I can't get from my usual keyserver (wwwkeys.pgp.net, round-robin DNS for wwwkeys.TLD.pgp.net) is John Lavin's. John, if you don't already have it set up (and presuming you're using GnuPG), do this: % cat >> ~/.gnupg/options keyserver wwwkeys.pgp.net ^D % gpg --send-keys <your key ID> Yes, the keyserver is just as trustworthy as Darxus's PLUG keyring. (You're still verifying that the fingerprint matches; if there had been any corruption--evil or accidental--of the key, it wouldn't.) -- gabriel rosenkoetter gr@eclipsed.net Attachment:
