[Noisebridge-discuss] GPG Workshop?

[Yan Zhu]

I'd be up for running a GPG workshop at Noisebridge. I was thinking
Saturday afternoon, with 1 hr for beginners and 1 hr for people who are
more paranoid.

Tom Lowenthal and I had planned to do this a while ago, so I'll see if he's
interested/available.
