What you know is that there is somebody that claims to be called "Carlos" that usually gives good advices here ;-) - and that this email comes from him, or at least, from the same person that uses to write and sign here with such gpg signature.
But that's sufficient isn't it? For all I know you're the best Carlos E. R. impersonator thus far known to me, but what I'm sure of by your signature it's the *same* impersonator everytime. That's all I need to know.
But you can not certify to anybody that I'm really named Carlos E. R ;-)
But if your real name were Gandalf the Grey, what difference would that make?
It's a different kind of trust.
Even if I meet you in person I trust that you tell me your real name. I can't remember *ever* having asked to look at the passport of someone introduced to me. :-) Regards, -- Jos van Kan registered Linux user #152704
