If anyone else in the group is going to DebConf and is planning on being part
of the keysigning, there are some strict rules concerning the kinds of keys
that will be accepted. What's notable is that none of the GPG keys I've seen
anybody in MHVLUG use so far would qualify. Making an acceptable key requires
making manual configuration changes to gnupg. Here are the highlights:
* Keys must be OpenPGPv4
* Primary keys should be DSA-2 or RSA, 2048 bits or more.
* self-signatures must not use MD5
* self-signatures must not use SHA1
* stated digest algorithm preferences must include at least one member
of the SHA-2 family at a higher priority than both MD5 and SHA1
* primary keys should have a reasonable expiration date (no more than 5
years in the future)
* acceptable keys must be sent via email no later than July 20, 23:39 UTC
