Hello,
I'm a keysigning paty newbie and I was'nt able to find a really useful
document about this last phase in the net or in the FOSDEM website.
I read "When you're back home" chapter in http://ksp.mdcc.cx/ but is not
enough clear to me.
I extracted list of keyIDs from ksp-fosdem2009.txt, then left only ones
to be signed.
For example if my own key was:
196 [ ] Fingerprint OK [ ] ID OK
pub 1024D/3819854E 2007-02-17 [expires: 2012-02-17]
Key fingerprint = BD5C 7C6B 7366 62F4 6B2F 6293 81E7 D586 3819 854E

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I keeped only Key fingerprint lines like this:
BD5C 7C6B 7366 62F4 6B2F 6293 81E7 D586 3819 854E
I did this for each verified ID.
QUESTION 1: is this correct?
Then I tested with
caff --no-sign --no-export-old --mail no "`cat ksp-test.txt`"
It seems working, but before flooding keysigning party with dirty mail,
I would get a hint from someone more experienced with this topic.
QUESTION 2: In order to send signed keys do I have to set
$CONFIG{’mailer-send’} option in .caffrc ?
Anybody could share a working .caffrc example ?
QUESTION 3: at this point what command do I have to do?
Maybe this?
caff --no-export-old --mail yes "`cat ksp-test.txt`"
Any hint would be greatly appreciated.
