 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
 ;)
