Thanks for the HOWTO.
After I have looked throug some of the pages from the HOWTO, I have been
thinking more about keysigning this weekend. We are getten quite packed, and
to get this a little more organiced, I'm now announcing a centraliced
keysigning party on Saturday.
The structure of the keysigning party is going to be like the centraliced
model, described here:
http://www.cryptnet.net/fdp/crypto/gpg-party.html#ss2.2
I'm thinking of making a list like the one in this link
http://www.cryptnet.net/fdp/crypto/gpg-party.html#ss2.4
or maybe a list like the output from gpg --fingerprint.
What do you prefere ?
To make this list, I need the following information for the attendees:
Key ID
Key Owner
Key Fingerprint
Key Size
Key Type
If you have your own key in your key ring, you can get all of this information
by running:
$ gpg --fingerprint your.mail@address.org
pub 1024D/992A4B3F 2005-01-01 John Doe <your.mail@address.org>
Key fingerprint = 1EC8 B1E3 152D FC5C 209F 77EB FA93 0983 993A 4B4F
sub 1024g/AEDC5435 2005-01-01
On the pub line, 1024 is the "Key Size", D, I think stands for DSA, thats the
"Key Type". After the / is the "Key ID", then the date for when the key was
created. Then follows the "Key Owner". On the next line is the "Key
Fingerprint".
If all people that wants to attend the keysigning party could send me this
information before, lets say Saturday at 10.00, I can put together a list of
all the keys to lunch, and the signing party can be done right after that.
You do not need to wait until Saturday to send me our information, this is
only a deadline, send the info as soon as possible.
I'll make a webpage to put the information on.
I have not organiced a keysigning party before, any improvement/suggestions
are welcome.
For more information about keysigning, see the link that Conrad sent.
