Re: Key Servers and True Names
"L. Detweiler", or someone using his name, is a bit confused about what keyservers are for - they're a convenience for making keys readily available, and reducing the chances of getting a spoofed key. The way to do a True Name Users Group is through key certification - create a key called "L. Detweiler's True Name Certifier <ld@true.names.org>" and use that key to sign keys for people who present real, non-forged authentication papers, signed statements, or whatever credentials you trust for demonstrating True Names. People can add that signature to the list of signatures they haul around on their public key. I normally only use variants on my real name, with the exception of one nym I use for anonymous posting, which is clearly a non-real name, except when I'm using someone else's name for humor value, or bogus names for junk mail reduction/identification (e.g. Time Stewart or Junk Mail Stewart).
