Furthermore, by signing a nym's key you place yourself at risk. If you sign the nym's key with your own key -- or sign using the key of your own nym, and that nym is subsequently "outed" -- then anyone wishing to find the individual(s) behind any nym whose key you've signed can attempt to coerce you into revealing this information, since you have claimed to know it.
This is the real problem, one which doesn't (to me) have a ready solution. If others can demonstrate that there [is|is not] some fairly straightforward way around it, I'd be happy to read it. Bruce Baugh bruceab@teleport.com http://www.teleport.com/~bruceab
