The 3rd OpenPGP Email Summit, July 2016
Purpose: Meeting of experts to discuss technical details of sending encrypted emails using OpenPGP.
This is an event open for anybody involved in the development of email clients using OpenPGP for encryption.
NOTE: This is a meeting of those who program and develop the corresponding software. Thus, we will have a lot of tech talk about key servers, key exchange, subject encryption, password recovery, etc. If you just are interested in these email program as a user, you probably will be bored to death ;-) .
Thus, if you are working in the area of
- technical details
- for sending encrypted emails
- with OpenPGP
- in a project or product feel free to join us.
Note however, that due to capacity reasons we don’t want to have more than 2 guys from each project and we can accept requests only until we have reached the limit of 30 attendees at our host Giegerich & Partner in Dreieich (near Frankfurt).
Rules: By Default, we follow Chatham House Rules: It is fine to tell/write about what happened there, but we need explicit permission to quote statements by individual persons or to attach them to organizations.
If you want to attend, please send an informal email to: mailto:nico@enigmail.net (ideally with some description of your role in this area). That way you will get further details such as the location and hotel informations.
