Key signing details

If you want to take part of the key signing party, please me send your GPG key and fingerprint at stgraber_at_ubuntu_dot_com (You can simply send an e-mail containing the fingerprint signed by your key) and I'll add them to the list.

You'll then need to take at least a printed version of your fingerprint (to check that mine is correct), an ID card and a pencil with you.

I'll bring a printed list of all the GPG keys and fingerprints for each participant so that you only have to tick the ones that are correct and then sign them when you have some time (that could be right after the key signing party or at home once back).

I'll mainly follow this procedure for the keysigning : http://linuxreviews.org/howtos/gnupg/signingparty/
You can find the current list here : keysigning.html
