PGP key validation at Cocoon GetTogethers

How it works

The GT is a good occasion to verify each other's PGP key.

  • Ensure your fingerprint is at a keyserver (See http://pgp.mit.edu/) for details.
  • Before the day of the event, add your fingerprint and email on this page, i.e. add the output of:
    {{{gpg --fingerprint yourself@apache.org or
    pgpk -ll yourself@apache.org
    }}}
  • At the event, we will print out copies of this page for everyone (on plain old paper!).
  • Whenever you meet (or at a special keysigning time) someone who is on the list, then you can each verify with each other that *your key* on *their printout* is correct. Or in other words, that their printout really matches your key.
  • It is important to be sure that it is the correct person (the easiest way is to view their passport). You also need to estimate how much you trust that person to be diligent with following the proper procedure.
  • Then you can each mark the relevant name on your printed list.
  • Once you get home, you can add/sign each of the fingerprints that you have made a mark against, after you have fetched them from the keyserver.
  • Do not just automatically sign everyone on the list without proper verification. You must assert each identity.
