[KLUG Members] gpg key signing party.

[Bruce Smith]

OK, I have my gpg key created and working.  I added a couple of my other
emails to my key (adduid), but I'm undecided about which ones to add.

This leaves me with some questions about wwwkeys.us.pgp.net.

1)  How spam proof is it?  Can spam bots harvest emails from it?

2)  What if I upload my public key now, and change my mind later about
my email addresses (I run adduid/deluid later).  I can I change my key
on the server?  How?  Can I upload it again and overwrite it?

3)  If I can change my key on the server, what keeps other people from
changing my key?

All I see is the place to upload a key, but nothing on how to change or
delete a key, nor any security on the key uploaded. I don't get it!  :-)
