Long ago, in a galaxy close to where I am this week, there was a PGP
MODULE. It was built by a kind person at MIT (which is NOT close to
where I am this week) and worked exactly as one would expect it to work.
Maybe some day we will have a PGP for CMS again. Dunno.
Recently, PGP got interesting again (to me). Actually, GPG is what I
use instead (for better or worse). So it occured to me that when there
is a face-to-face opportunity, such as that enjoyed by those fortunate
souls who made the trek to Central Texas, the subject of key signing
should be kept in mind. Therefore, if you happen to be in Austin this
week and have a GPG key and want a signature, let me know. At least,
let SOMEONE know. (My signature may not be what you need, and I am okay
with that. But ... get yer keys signed!)
