GPG key signing
Tom Morris
Just a note to say that if you are dorky enough to have a GPG key, do
bring identification and we can trade key signatures and build the web
of trust.
If you have no idea what I'm wittering on about:
http://cryptnet.net/fdp/crypto/keysigning_party/en/keysigning_party.html
I wrote a little Ruby script a while back to make doing key signing
less annoying on the Mac (and there's a link to a Perl script that
does similarly):

If you want to learn about GPG/public key encryption, please install a
copy before you get to the camp. The gnupg package is on apt-get, port
and fink (iirc) or you can get source or binaries here for your chosen
platform:
http://www.gnupg.org/
If anyone wants to learn to use GPG or hack on building a Ruby
interface to it (it's a project I've been planning for a while),
please make sure you download your own copy - don't trust me or anyone
else but get it from a source you trust!
Anyway, ought to go to sleep. See you happy campers soon. Bring your pickaxes!
