Yes. This is nothing particularly exciting, but once in a while we
should do it. I was even considering changing my GPG key, after a long
time.

Yes, if we do this we should setup a well-thought-out procedure, so that
everybody knows exactly what to do with each of the others, and what to
check. I'm *not* a cryptography expert, and I'm sure many other aren't
either. Does anybody know how to do such a thing? I remember that the
system worked well at the Bristol GHM, where we were assigned indices
and given printed papers explaining every step. I might still have the
paper from back then... Found it. But I only have the instructions I
got, not a script to generate the papers (every one got a different
one).
There is an introduction here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_signing_party
, and a howto here:
http://www.cryptnet.net/fdp/crypto/keysigning_party/en/keysigning_party.html
Does anybody volunteer to organize this?
