The Gentoo Foundation[1] has partnered with Nitrokey[2] to equip all Gentoo developers with free Nitrokey Pro 2[3] devices. Gentoo developers will use the Nitrokey devices to store cryptographic keys for signing of git commits and software packages, GnuPG keys, and SSH accounts.
Thanks to the Gentoo Foundation and Nitrokeyâs discount, each Gentoo developer is eligible to receive one free Nitrokey Pro 2. To receive their Nitrokey, developers will need to register with their @gentoo.org email address at the dedicated order form [4]. A Nitrokey Pro 2 Guide[5] is available on the Gentoo Wiki with FAQ & instructions for integrating Nitrokeys into developer workflow.
