Hey y'all

I just had an idea. We could have a GnuPG-based plugin to provide digital 
signatures.

http://gnupg.org/

As you know, OOo 2.0 will bring digital signatures, but it is the kind 
that depends on a certification authority. Not to mention that the 
certificates either cost money or are short lived (or both). I prefer the 
GnuPG kind, where anyone can make their own public key and signatures.

We could make a plugin for GPG signatures. It need not provide all the 
functionality of GPG. Only provide enough to make and manage digital 
signatures. If we did that, it could be made just as simple, or simpler, 
than the certification-based signatures. So we'd make digital signatures 
available to a wider audience.

Just an idea. What do you think?

Cheers,
