arthur@rodney:~ $ dpkg -s signing-party
Package: signing-party
Status: install ok installed
Priority: extra

Installed-Size: 64
Maintainer: Simon Richter <sjr@debian.org>
Architecture: all
Version: 0.2.3-2
Depends: gnupg
Description: Scripts and docs useful for keysigning parties
To improve the web of trust, so-called signing parties are held at various
occasions, where people meet, drink beer and exchange their PGP 
fingerprints.
This package contains two scripts useful in conjunction with these parties:
.
gpg-key2ps generates a PostScript file with small paper strips that contain
the output of gpg --list-keys (only prettier). You simply print this file,
cut the strips at the lines and you're set for the signing party.
.
gpg-mailkeys is used after the party. When you've signed a key, this script
will send the new signature to the key owner via mail.
.
In a not-too-distant future, there will also be a HOWTO document regarding
key signing, but I haven't managed to write one yet. :-/

yes pgp.mit.edu, perhaps others also, can't recall which others.

Try key ID ACC5BA7A -- 0823462E is a sub-key.
