I stopped reading the phildev.com article when it insisted on third-party photo ID. The point of keysigning is not to verify a person's right to drive or access to health care, it's to associate a key with the identity you use to communicate. Often, that identity is a persistent pseudonym, intended to avoid the very third-parties that issue photo ID.
I've run a few formal and informal keysigning parties. I've written up some instructions at https://sobac.com/wiki/Formal_Keysigning I'd be interested in seeing if it can be adapted it for use in a video or audio conference. --Bob -- Bob Jonkman <[email protected]> Phone: +1-519-635-9413 SOBAC Microcomputer Services http://sobac.com/sobac/ Software --- Office & Business Automation --- Consulting GnuPG Fngrprnt:04F7 742B 8F54 C40A E115 26C2 B912 89B0 D2CC E5EA On April 26, 2020 10:07:35 PM EDT, Rouben via talk <[email protected]> wrote: >Hi GTA LUG folks, > >Do you think it’s doable?
