Since I KNOW I DON"T KNOW, how about someone that really understands and uses certificates (especially from CAcert) do a NLUG presentation about them? Everything from 'why use them', 'differences in certs and keys', 'how to make them' (server uses of various kinds, client certs, etc), 'how to use them' (again each kind), and have a quick 'certification party' afterwords, where we could also do key signing.
Yes, covering keys, signing and use would be another great side topic, especially if we have a related key signing party. Just a thought. Actually, having an annual 'cert/key' event would be a 'good thing'(tm). Just some thoughts. ...
