The purpose of Manchester Free Software is to promote the Free Software

Every meeting we start with an opportunity for informal key signing.
For an explanation of what this is about see:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_signing_party


Schedule:

Starting at 19:00 sharp; the room should be available from at least
18:30 with tea, coffee and water.

* 19:00-20:45 Tutorial: CrytoAfterParty
* 20:45-21:00 Event Planning: Day against DRM
* 21:00-..... Social, where discussion on either topic can continue


=3D=3D=3D Tutorial =3D=3D=3D

The main part of the meeting will be a tutorial following on from a
CryptoParty level of knowledge / experience.  With the view to actually
being able to use it, rather than just a theoretical knowledge.

It will go through email self-defence including testing using the FSF's
"Edward" bot, understanding the web of trust and how to use it, the
broken CA (Certificate Authority) system and more.  This is also an
opportunity for people to ask questions and clarify knowledge.

If you have experience of cryto with Free Software then please consider
giving a lightning talk at the meeting.


=3D=3D Event Planning =3D=3D

The 2017 Day Against DRM is on Sunday 9th July and MFS intend to
organise a Manchester event.  We need to plan the what, where, when and w=
ho.

There are paid parking lots around the venue, they are marked by a blue
