Quoting Jonathan McDowell (nood...@earth.li): > However mass keysignings with the number of people involved in DebConf > simply don't encourage good signing practice. I don't know how we solve
Because we never tried to do so. Since Debconf 4 that was the first Debconf I attended, I have seen many mass keysignings. I have however *never* seen any presentation about what "good practices" are. I have witnessed many people having (sometimes hot) talks about what "good practices" are (Manoj lost me somewhere in the mexican heat, trying to explain me what his good practices are). Why not trying to have a talk about these good practices *before* the keysigning? Of course, they are debated and people doing keysigning for a long time have certainly different "good practices". But, still, I think there is a kind of "commonly accepted ground" that about everybody agrees about. In all Debconfs I've seen, there were newcomers to keysigning and even key management, thus people that would have been very happy to learn more and probably look less moronic when doing the keysigning. And even those who are less new to key management would welcome something by the GPG key wizards, indeed...:) _______________________________________________ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss
