Cryptoparty in Worcester on Sun. Mar 22
Hello Worcester Linux Users Group! My name is Steve and I'm a Linux user who lives in the Boston Area. I'm helping to organize a Cryptoparty at the Worcester Public Library, and I wanted to extend an invitation to WLUG members. The cryptoparty is this Sunday 3/22 from 2pm - 4pm, and we plan to cover Jitsi and GnuPG. The WPL is located at 3 Salem Street, Worcester, and we'll be meeting in the Banx room. Hope to see you Sunday. Steve
Excellent! :) Thanks for putting this together. I'm not sure I'll make it but my key is collecting tons of dust. http://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x180B8BAF13B27893 On Tue, Mar 17, 2015 at 9:00 PM, Steve Revilak <steve@srevilak.net> wrote:

Time, place, invitation, check checkcheck. You forgot to tell us What T... is a cryproparty? Is it a keysigning? "plan to cover" makes it sound like a lecture. Installfest? "Party" makes it sound purely social. Drink wine and solve cryptograms? -- Keith
It's a party where people allude to events very cryptically. On Wed, Mar 18, 2015 at 2:34 PM, Keith Wright <kwright@keithdiane.us> wrote:

If you can figure out what it is then you're invited ;-) On Wed, Mar 18, 2015 at 2:54 PM, Richard Klein <rich@richardklein.org> wrote:

That's a very good question; sorry for not explaining earlier. A cryptoparty <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptoparty> is an event where people get together to learn about encryption and communications privacy.
Is it a keysigning?
"plan to cover" makes it sound like a lecture.
Installfest?
There's a bit of a lecture component, but I usually think of cryptoparties as workshops. I find they work best when people bring laptops, to set up and try the software (GnuPG and Jitsi in this case). In that sense, they're a little like installfests (e.g., the "help you install and set up" part). That said, laptops aren't a requirement; it's okay to hang out, listen and watch. Since GnuPG is one of the topics, there will probably be some keysigning involved.
"Party" makes it sound purely social. Drink wine and solve cryptograms?
Perhaps after the cryptoparty :) Steve
