I've already got feelers out. Ic, then I read your mail yesterday. . Some mechanism by which we can verify your real-life identity. For example, any of the following mechanisms would suffice: - A PGP key signed by any well-known signature, such as: + Any current Debian developer you have met *in real life* + Any formal certification service (such as Verisign, etc.) that verifies yourself - not an email address to be valid. *or* - A scanned (or physically mailed) copy of any formal documents certifying your identity (such as a birth certificate, national ID card, U.S. Driver's License, etc.). If emailed, please sign the mail with your PGP key. Regards, Joey -- Unix is user friendly ... It's just picky about it's friends.
