Hello, I create for myself a gpg key and want to get it signed, however I've sent out half a dozen requests and so far I've gotten only negative responses to the effect that I must know so-and-so and we must met in person (considering that the person responds at all). Now, I'm a student (think penny less), and live in a rural area 100mi from the nearest LUG and people out here are _very_ computer illiterate to the point where educated people think that turning a computer off will damage it, or that the computer loses power (1GHz becomes .2GHZ), as it grows older. So no one has a key, at all. And they would not want to help create a web of trust even if I asked and explained it to them. They just don't believe in security around here (Oh, that would never happen to me! There are laws against that! You are a security freak.)
I want to develop FOSS and feel obligated to get a key to protect uses of the software I'm modifying from MITM attacks. Thanks, David
