Development of the protocol

  • We came up with that protocol during the first keyserver admin conference at Utrecht in May 2000. Len later refined it and puplished a description. Dd9jn (talk) 21:01, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

Drawbacks of the protocol

I never attended a keysigning party where not at least a few attendees showed up to late or have not prepared there list. Thus, they need extra treatment and the

procedural advantage of the protocol is gone. After all it is faster to pass along each other and exchange printed paper slips while showing some ID card. Dd9jn (talk) 21:01, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
