Hello RMS,

I have started my first free software project and feel I need some help 
before making it official. I have also mentioned you personally in the 
readme file and wish for your approval before I make the file public.

I dubbed the project GPGNotary. I'll quote a few lines from the README:

#### <quote> ####
Simply put, a working installation of GPGNotary 1.0 does two things:
 
1. It shows the web surfer the GPGNotary PGP public key.
or
2. It takes a message (md5sum) from a web surfer and returns a signed and
   timestamped version of it.
 
Quick examples:
http://any-server.org/cgi-bin/timestamp.cgi?public_key.gpg
or
http://any-server.org/cgi-bin/timestamp.cgi?d9974917a5b8842b1cf901f9264d41b1
#### </quote> ####

You may download the GPGNotary-1_0.tar.gz from my personal laptop:

http://guest:[email protected]:81/public/GPGNotary-1_0.tar.gz

You may try running my personal installation at:

http://193.150.225.41:81/cgi-bin/timestamp.cgi?--help
http://193.150.225.41:81/cgi-bin/timestamp.cgi?public_key.gpg
http://193.150.225.41:81/cgi-bin/timestamp.cgi?d9974917a5b8842b1cf901f9264d41b1

But please dont give the above address to a lot of people - I'm on a 
1024/384 kbps link from home. Since GPGNotary uses so extremely little 
bandwidth, I reccon you can give the address to approx 100 persons, but no 
more.

The reason I mailed you is because I trust you. But if you trust other ppl 
better suited to reply to this email/request for help, that is also good.

Thank you for authoring the GPL and FDL. Without it, this would not have 
been possible.
