signature business for secure edit release announce
I'm not going to waste any more bandwidth sending the announcement (sorry), but here's how you can validate the signature if you'd like to. If you'd like to verify the signature on the announcement for secure edit, please finger me at tjbryce@amherst.edu. In my plan is contained the announcement with a valid signature from Miyako Software's public key. Even though I had "treat source file as text" selected, I think there must have been left over some weird character in there that is not transmitted through email properly. What I did to get the signature to validate was place the announcement in my plan at amherst.edu, finger myself, copy the signed announcement, detach the invalid signature with mac pgp, sign the leftover text and copy just the resulting signature, log back onto amherst, and I edited the plan.txt file, pasting the new signature onto where the old signature used to be. FINALLY WORKED! Sincere apologies for using THREE TIMES the bandwidth the message actually needed, and not even getting it to work at that. Thanks to Bill Evans for checking out the signature and noticing it was invalid. Tom
