I notice the link in Mark's note to his PGP public key (as provided by
and managed by Protonmail and signed by THEIR key; I have one of those
too).
FYI some of us are working on a community trust anchor. Following best
practice for community web-of-trust, this starts with cross-signed PGP
keys (GPG keys, effectively the same) but then also includes PKI
certificates. I won't get into the details in this note, but ...
If you have a PGP key pair (and actually use it), you could probably
help the effort. Please contact me off-list for details.
Thanks.

Last week I told my current employer that my plans are to retire sometime in
the 1st quarter 2026. Date TBD. They thanked me for the heads-up. It'll be
interesting to see whether they'll replace me with a person of like experience,
or a person with about 5-10 years experience, or anyone at all.
