I was thinking the same thing.  May I suggest PGP signatures as a way around
this problem?  Bill, do you know if PGP is available in the UK?  It would
be a cheap and easy solution.  Then all you'd need to do is arrange a
'techdiver' PGP signing party at tec/DEMA this year.  Might even be fun.

Scott.
