[Discuss] RMS in the news
I have a fond memory of RMS crashing one of our BLU meetings to hammer at the point that our organization’s name included the word Linux and that we should amend it to include the word Gnu. With rumors of his death not quite entirely exaggerated—departure from FSF is tantamount to interment, it’s been his whole life—I’d love to hear more RMS stories. -rich ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [Discuss] Keysigning Party Signup Problems
Per Bill Ricker's suggestion, I changed the scripts to use the keyserver at keys.gnupg.net, and the BLU registration page is now workingagain.

[Discuss] Keysigning Party Signup Problems
I have been unsuccessful in registering my key (C15F0596) for the keysigning party tomorrow, apparently because the subkeys.pgp.net servers are down. Every attempt to register via http://blu.org/keysignings/keypartyregister.php returns an error: C15F0596 NOT registered; gpg returned 2 The keysigning registration page itself states that the key must be available on the pgp.mit.edu keyserver, however, the two announcements (http://blu.org/pipermail/announce/2019-September/000349.html and http://blu.org/pipermail/announce/2019-September/000351.html) both say to use subkeys.pgp.net. I can confirm that my key is on pgp.mit.edu, and gpg on my machine has no problem fetching it. However, it appears subkeys.pgp.net is having issues: None of the 3 IPs listed in the A record for subkeys.pgp.net are responsive on port 11371. Can we switch the signup script back to using pgp.mit.edu as a keyserver? Or is there anything else we can do? -- Alex Pennace, a...@pennace.org ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
