How far do you want to go? Do you want to accept driver's licenses or require passports? Anything without photo or not issued by the government should be out. How do you want to do the signing - if right there, will there be a safe computer available? Does "safe" mean freshly installed without network connection from known good media (e.g. vendor-supplied)? Do you plan on giving people a chance to create their keys after the talk, and then have them signed? How much entropy is there in a box idling in a corner which is used to generate a bunch of keys in a short timeframe? I don't think it's that trivial to do, and not doing it properly risks compromising the purpose.
