It is appropriate only to list yourself in the city that you reside in. However, it is also appropriate (and encouraged) to put a time-limited listing up when you are going to travel to other cities. The duration of the "event" should be no longer than your actual presence in the city you're traveling to.
Also anyway I could send someone my key to get signed into the keyring, with out physically being there (currently up in Maryland)? Thanks.
That wouldn't be appropriate. Keysigning protocol typically requires a face-to-face meeting complete with legal identification to prove you are who you say you are.
That said, I've tried (unsuccessfully) to contact the Baltimore LUG to set up a keysigning and drive down there from where I live (Philadelphia) but I haven't heard any response. :-( If it's only going to be like 5 people I don't particularly want to drive down for that but for keysignings with ~20+ people attending I'm game for a road trip. I'm connected directly to the strong set in TriLUG as well as PLUG (Philadelphia LUG) so that would be the next best thing to getting to a TriLUG keysigning I suppose. I'm hoping to make it back down to Raleigh in the coming months and will try to arrange my visit in such a timeframe that I can get to a keysigning there and can firm up my placement in the WoT there acting as a sort of Johnny Cryptoseed between the LUGs.
