It's really up to the person doing the signing. :) In general, you want to have as many strong forms of ID as possible. passport > driver's license > student id, etc. Multiple IDs are good, I don't think I've had need to go beyond 3 before.

Andy,

That sounds like something I'd like to do again-- it's been a while since I made a Key Signing party!  :D

What are acceptable forms of ID for most?  (I don't have a passport...)

Hi all,

Our next WLUG meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, April 22nd, and we will be having a PGP Key Signing party, which will be orchestrated by Chuck Anderson and Eric Martin.  I'll update the website shortly.

Also, at the June meeting, we will have a guest speaker talk to us about the Open Street Map effort.

That's all for now...see ya later,

Andy

Last call on Pre-Registration. At 3:30pm I'll generate the final list of pre-registered fingerprints. On Thu, Apr 16, 2009 at 11:59:39PM -0400, Chuck Anderson wrote:

If you wish to participate, please check it over as there are a few steps you need to perform before arriving at the meeting.

Thanks, Chuck

If you didn't get an email directly from me to you (i.e. not via the wlug email list), then you have missed pre-registration deadline. I generated the final list of keys at about 4:30pm today. Even so, you can certainly still participate--you'll just need to print your key's fingerprint 10-20 times for distribution to others, as it says here under "Right Before the WLUG meeting": http://www.wlug.org/keysigning/ We usually end the meeting by 8:30-9pm, depending on how long things take.

I work until 8pm, about 20 minutes away. How late will this be running if I wanted to stop by? Is pre-registration required, or just optional? Would it be okay to show up late?

I'd like to understand why my email message to wlug-keys didn't make it when I sent it a few days ago. Did anybody else run into this, or is this a case of PEBKAC?

Does the /bin/mail on the system where you ran the "gpg" command do the right thing with email sent from there? If it isn't configured correctly for remote mail delivery (e.g. smart relay host in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf) then you might try copy/paste of the command's output to your regular email client program.

HI guys, I was expecting to see my name in the wlug-keysigning-fingerprints.txt since I had (I thought) followed the instructions several days ago. Alas, my name/info is not present in the file. :-( I'll follow the rest of the instructions, and I'll see you at the meeting.
