Room:
Red (#FF0000)
time:
Sat 1pm

PGP/GPG has been around for quite a long time, but few people seem to have heard of it. Even fewer people seem to know what to do with it.

I'll talk about what PGP is, what it can do for you, and how you can use it.

This session can also include a key signing party if there is interest, or the key signing can take place throughout the BarCamp.

Do the signing as a session...

We just tried to do keysigning in passing at the Summer of Code mentor summit, and due to session schedules, it becomes difficult, and you end up with way less signatures than if you just did it as a session.


Good suggestion

That sounds like a good suggestion. Perhaps if we run this overview early in the BarCamp, we can then setup a keysigning session for later.
