The monthly Rochester area New York State LoCo meetup was a success. A total of twelve people showed up for the event and a good time was had by all. Two participants got their CACert assurance completed and other members completed a PGP key signing. There were several mini-conversations including a conversation about offering classes to the local community and hosting open source demonstrations.

Original Event Notice

This is a general meet up event with no planned presentations and very little agenda. This will be the first time we have met at this location so we will be evaluating it for meetings in the future.

We will attempt to extend the PGP and CACert webs of trust. At least one CACert assurer is planning to be at the meeting. Send email to mailto:keysigning@etrumeus.com if interested in participating.

• If wishing to have your PGP key signed, please familiarize yourself with the Ubuntu GPG Howto, send the key fingerprint to mailto:keysigning@etrumeus.com and bring government issued photo ID to the meeting.

• If wishing to collect CACert assurance points, please follow the CACert directions for CAP assurance. Usually this will involve several steps, including contacting a local assurer.
