Hi,
| Then, if you're interested in verifying keys at the level of "I've | talked to this person and someone has paid a few hundred euros for him | to attend a conference in his name" or greater trust, then you can | glance over the fingerprint on the badge, versus that on the list, and | just tick the item.
Good idea and I'm all for it.
I'm not. One reason is that I think it is a bit deprecated, and if I wanted to collect stamps I would go to a stampshop. The other is that RIPE is implementing X509 authentication. I think it would certainly be much better to do something that was related to this than doing something that was not... if possible. Joergen Hovland (ENK)
