Description: Mark Smith and Kathleen Brade are our two browser hackers with Pearl Crescent LLC. They've been writing patches for a couple months now, and we should get them LDAP accounts and a shared torbrowser.git remote.

Mark Smith needs an LDAP account.

We need: 11:58 < weasel> name, forwarding email address, pgp key fingerprint, desired username.

11:58 < weasel> then you get arma/andrew/.. to ack that request. 11:59 < weasel> and somebody/something to indicate that their key is in fact their key.

Here is my info:

Name: Mark Smith
Email: mcs@pearlcrescent.com
PGP fingerprint: 2602 B0DD 0EB2 38CC E037  196A 0E36 124F 8E99 0F6E
Username: mcs

How do Tor developers use PGP?

Sounds good to me.

Well, in this case, you use your PGP key to interact with the LDAP server. We're using a slightly modified version of the same thing that Debian uses, and they use keys to interact with it because everybody in Debian has one.

Speaking of which, it looks like you haven't uploaded your key to any of the keyservers?

OK. It has been a long time since I have done anything with PGP, so please forgive my ignorance.

Speaking of which, it looks like you haven't uploaded your key to any of the keyservers?

True. In fact, my PGP key is basically brand new. Can you recommend a keyserver to upload it to? Thanks!

Any sane keyserver will do, as they sync. One is pgp.mit.edu.

Key still missing from keyserver network.
