DebConf24 Continuous Key-Signing Party

🎉🥳🤡🎂🍥 Yay, party! 🎉🥳🤡🎂🍥

🎉🥳🤡🎂🍥 Yay, crypto! 🎉🥳🤡🎂🍥

DebCamp has started, and in a couple of days, we will fully be in DebConf24 mode!

As most of you know, an important part that binds Debian together is our cryptographic identity assurance, and that is in good measure tightened by the Continuous Key-Signing Parties we hold at DebConfs and other Debian and Free Software gatherings.

As I have done during (most of) the past DebConfs, I have prepared a set of pseudo-social maps to help you find where you are in the OpenPGP mesh of our conference. Naturally, Web-of-Trust maps should be user-centered, so find your own at:

https://people.debian.org/~gwolf/dc24_ksp/

The list is now final and it will not receive any modifications (I asked for them some days ago); if your name still appears on the list and you don’t want to be linked to the DC24 KSP in the future, tell me and I’ll remove it from future versions of the list (but it is part of the final DC24 file, as its checksum is already final)

Speaking of which!

If you are to be a part of the keysigning, get the final DC24 file and, on a device you trust, check its SHA256 by running:

$ sha256sum dc24_fprs.txt
11daadc0e435cb32f734307b091905d4236cdf82e3b84f43cde80ef1816370a5  dc24_fprs.txt

Make sure the resulting number matches the one I’m presenting. If it doesn’t, ensure your copy of the file is not corrupted (i.e. download again). If it still doess not match, notify me immediately.

Does any of the above confuse you? Please come to (or at least, follow the stream for) my session on DebConf opening day, Continuous Key-Signing Party introduction, 10:30 Korean time; I will do my best to explain the details to you.

PS- I will soon provide a simple, short PDF that will probably be mass-printed at FrontDesk so that you can easily track your KSP progress.
