Because when I use your (or Mike's) printout, I then have to double-check the printout against the key I have in your keyring at home before signing (there's no reason to assume that you printed what you distributed digitally), whereas if I just import your keyring and print my own copy of that, I know that if the fingerprint at the meeting matches the fingerprint I've printed, I can just sign without reverifying. In any case, note that I wasn't seriously suggesting that. > http://lists.PhillyLinux.org/mailman/pubarchive/plug/2002-June/016193.html > > The vice chairman of the Triangle Linux Users Group out of Raleigh/Durham, > North Carolina, who has been doing a bunch of keysignings, will be joining > us.
