Hi dkg!
I think it'd be great if you could be involved! Here are some things
that I think would be useful (at least to me):
* What PGP is.
* What it can be used for.
* Why someone should be using it.
* A high level overview of how it works.
* Maybe a bootstrap howto of the first steps of using a key
* How keys are specifically used in Debian
* Perhaps an intro to Monkeysphere?
I think some low level stuff about how it's really working would be
cool, but it seems like it's a topic that can get complicated very
quickly. What do you think?
I can probably handle a lot of the general and beginners stuff if you
can verify that my facts are correct.
