Bryan,
I also have a THAWTE certificate. I still think the key signing party is
a good idea though. I tend to use my GnuPGP key to encrypt files and and
such.
Why don't we have a Presentation on PGP/GnuPGP by Ken followed by a
S/MIME presentation by yourself?
Agenda:
1. GnuPGP/PGP presentation
2. S/MIME presentation
3. Key signing party
4. Drinks
