EFF is having a housewarming party at 7:00p on Tuesday, December 10.
Here's the announcement from the EFFector newsletter.


* Holiday Party (With PGP Key-Signing Extravaganza!)

WHEN: Tuesday, December 10th, 2002, at 7:00 PM Pacific Time
WHERE: Electronic Frontier Foundation
454 Shotwell Street
San Francisco, CA 94110 

No, we're not moving! But we are expanding to include the space next 
door. It is now the newest addition to EFF Headquarters. Come 
celebrate our new digs and the spirit of the holiday season with us. 
We'll have great food, beer, musical madness from the Funkmonsters, 
and the latest news on EFF from the ever-compelling John Perry Barlow 
and Shari Steele. 

This event is free and open to the general public. The Electronic 
Frontier Foundation (http://www.eff.org) is the leading civil 
liberties organization working to protect rights in the digital 
world. For more information, please see EFF's website. 

An RSVP is appreciated. Please contact: 
katina at eff.org 

Let us know you're coming so we don't run out of food and holiday 
libations. 

UPDATE: PGP Key-Signing Session at EFF Holiday Party! 

In response to popular demand, EFF will host a PGP key-signing 
session during the housewarming party. If you are a PGP user, you can 
help expand the web of trust by signing others' keys and getting 
others to sign your key. 

In order to participate, you will need to have a PGP key. 
Additionally, you MUST SEND YOUR PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK _IN ADVANCE_ to 
the keysigning coordinator, Seth Schoen. If you do not send your key 
block beforehand, you will not be able to collect others' signatures. 
(Your key block is generated when you "export" your public key, and 
it begins with "-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----".) 

Additionally, you must bring a paper copy of your own key 
fingerprint, and you should bring identifying information sufficient 
to convince other attendees of your identity. 

If you have never attended a PGP keysigning event, you can see 

http://www.cryptnet.net/fdp/crypto/gpg-party.html 

for general information on what a keysigning is and how to 
participate. 

Note that EFF will facilitate the keysigning but will not itself sign 
any keys. Instead, you will collect signatures from fellow attendees. 

Again, in order to participate, send your key block to schoen at eff.org 
BEFORE the party!
