Dazy Day one.25 Oct

The phrase rushed off your feet could not go close to describing how packed, busy and popular the Ubuntu-UK stand has proven to be.

So a big thanks to everyone who took part and I’ll see everyone else tomorrow.

I have lost count of the times I have registered openPGP keys against my name. If you unsure what open PGP keys and key signing means then go check Google or wikipedia because im not the least bit qualified to talk robustly on this topic. What I do know is I keep loosing track and location and content of my keys. Launchpad does however provide a good guide to creating a new key and publishing it to launchpad, and trying to follow it was not working for me. Thankfully though Adam Bagnall pointed me in the direction of Seahorse and this has enabled me to progress as far as signing the Code of conduct and becoming an Ubuntero. Though now its late and I am only just back from helping set up the

Thanks for reading, now the show !
