I blanked out much of the info on my digitized driver's license.
I got approved so I guess that's ok. Only the image is required,
signed with your GPG key.
The image requirement was debated on several lists over several
months. It looks like nobody wants to play anymore. The idea
is the image can be used to see if a developer who signed your
key recognizes your face. Many people say that the developer
sig on your key should be enough but the image is required for
now.

Yeah. I look like a crazed lunatic on my DL.
I only have a developer sig on my PGP key and my GPG key signed
with my PGP key. I'm feeling a little vulnerable. If any
developer or NMQer in the Vancouver area wants to do a key
signing email me please.
