Yeah, this is why I thought that the process used at Debconf 7[0] (Scotland) to put people into small groups based on optimizing heuristically the MSD results was much better than what we did last year (and seem to be going ahead and doing this year). I agree that mass keysignings aren't very useful, but I also found the totally disorganized keysigning that we did in Spain, and here to lack some useful structure, cohesion and discussions about best practices. micah 0. https://debconf7.debconf.org/wiki/Keysigning
