[BLU/Officers] is there key-signing pre-talk? with speaker?



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

So far we only have 5 people signed up. Hopefully we'll have a few more
before Wednesday.
The other thing is how we are going to do the signing. Most of the time,
we've paired up 2 lines, but other times when we don't have a lot of
people signed up, we have 1 person at a time get up and go around the room.
Bill,
Do you want to moderate the actual keysigning, or either JABR and I can
do it.
