Subj: PKEY_DROP Echo Guidelines - EList repost
____________________________________________________________________________
This is the PKEY_DROP Echo. The purpose of the Echo is to provide a place
to post and find public-keys for data privacy and electronic signatures
within FidoNet.
This is a companion conference to PUBLIC_KEYS Echo. It is distributed via
the same channels as PUBLIC_KEYS. It is not intended for general message
traffic but questions relating to public-key problems and bogus key notices
are permitted. Simply identify and drop your public-key into this
Echo and conduct any general discussion in PUBLIC_KEYS Echo.
This is a technical Echo with very few rules. Those very few rules are:
1. Stay on-topic. Public-key drop is the main purpose and notice of
key problems or bogus keys it the secondary purpose.
2. No Private flagged messages in Echomail! Encrypted traffic as
public-keys is permitted because that is what this Echo is for.
3. Be aware that Echomail is NOT secure. Don't take anything at face value.
4. The posts in this Echo are the sole responsiblity of the poster. If you
need verification, use Netmail.
5. The Moderators will deal with off-topic traffic. Don't respond for them.
Links to this Echo will only be curtailed when absolutely necessary so
please don't make it necessary. [grin]
The Moderators are Christopher Baker [KeyID: 1024/4B9A59 1992/10/03] and
GK Pace [KeyID: 1024/B6B823 1992/09/28] at 1:374/14 and 1:374/26,
respectively.
This Echo is Gated into the U.K. by Tim Walls at 2:253/513. [thanks, Tim!]
This Echi is Gated into Zone 6 by Lai Zit Seng at 6:600/220. [thanks, Lai!]
The other Zones are open [hint, hint].
It is recommended that individual, public-keys be made available via Netmail
or by file-request with the magic filename: PGPKEY and that the public-key
provided for that request by given a distinctive filename using part or all
of each provider's name and address. For example, on my system, a
file-request of PGPKEY will give BAK37414.ASC to the requesting system. A
magic filename of KEYRING will yield extracts from my Public Keyring as
BAKPUB14.ASC. This will avoid duplicate overwriting and make it easier to
track the keys. Using standard magic filenames will make it easier to find
keys and keyrings on different systems.
This Echo is available on the Zone 1 Backbone. This Echo is Elisted
as of ELIST211. Please feel free to announce this Echo to all interested
participants in your area.
Thanks.
TTFN.
