If I may be so bold, last time we did this, a very small proportion of
attendees actually sent around signed keys.  Or did they just not want
to sign mine? :-)  If you've got a laptop and install pgp-tools on it,
you can run through the signing routine at least once in the room so we
can clear up any confusion that might prevent propagating the "web of
trust."
