Thanks to the attendants and I am sorry for not responding to the ones
with on-the-edge submissions -- there was actually an active one
accepted and I've refreshed the authoritative record about the event
at https://people.redhat.com/jpokorny/keysigning/2017-ha/ accordingly
(see '*2.*' suffixes).
I'd also kindly ask the actual attendants (one person skipped the
event) to do the remaining signing work within the month at latest.
You can just grab the key of the other, already verified party from
the linked source (or the well known key server if present), sign it,
and then (IMHO) preferably send the signed key back to the original
person at one of his/her listed email, again (IMHO) preferably in an
encrypted form. There are various tools to help with this workflow at
scale, such as PIUS (https://github.com/jaymzh/pius) to give an
example, but YMMV.
May the web of trust be with you.
