Replying to [comment:7 weasel]:
> Mike, this isn't the place for your rants against the web-of-trust or
pgp keysigning in general. Take that elsewhere, thanks.
Weasel, I was not just ranting, I was proposing an alternate protocol for
key authentication. I do not believe we should force individuals to
divulge their name and/or participate in a broken process when
alternatives are available. I reiterated my feelings only because arma
seemed to be advocating actually participating in the government-
authenticated and social-network based WoT process as if it were the only
option we have for authenticating keys.
I also don't believe volunteers should be forced to divulge their social
circle as a requirement for joining the project, even if their social
circle doesn't happen to enforce the government-authenticated identity
aspect of the WoT.
I believe these things very strongly. I am sorry if you feel that
proposing alternative authentication mechanisms constitutes ranting
against the WoT.
However, now I /am/ ranting. But you have only yourself to thank for that
;)
