To be clear, I think it would be wonderful if somebody else ran a keysigning at plug, in the name of decentralization. It's easy. Well, the easiest way, which I would suggest, would be... 1) One organizing person to request that all of the other interested participants email their public key to them (the organizer). 2) The organizer imports every participants' public key into a keyring file (like http://www.phillylinux.org/keys/phillylinux.gpg). 3) The organizer prints a copy of the fingerprints of all of the keys in this keyring file ("gpg --no-default-keyring --keyring ./phillylinux.gpg --fingerprint", I believe) for every participant. 4) Organizer brings the printouts to the meeting, and conduct the keysigning as usual (everybody read off their fingerprints so others can verify them, etc.). There are a number of documents on the internet about running keysigning parties. If you would like to do this, I would encourage you to read them. -- "It's never too late to panic." http://www.ChaosReigns.com Attachment:
