Live Video Streams

All of you who can't afford the time or money to visit this year's FSCONS will be pleased to know that you can follow the lectures from home. With help from the GISS team, particularly streaming gurus Yves Degoyon and Valentina Messeri, we'll be able to show live video streams from most of the lectures.

Certificate assurance session for cacert.org certificates on FSCONS 2008

During the Friday night's social event of fscons.org, a certificate assurance session for cacert.org certificates will be held.
Please register an account before the session, if possible, at cacert.org so that you can print out and bring a prefilled CAP form. This will make the assurance process a lot smoother. Remember to bring a valid passport and/or a valid national identification card. Without any of the required tokens you cannot be assured.
Of course we can sign eachother's GnuPG keys during the session too.
