IMPORTANT: From the tram stop, WALK PAST the main entrance of Parc Phoenix (towards the sea/airport) and there will be a separate entrance for ER participants.
By Car
IMPORTANT: there is no parking at Parc PhoenixIf you plan to come by car, the recommendation is to one of the Park-and-Ride lots around
Nice, and take the tram to the event.
The closest one is just north of the venue near the tram stop "CADAM / Centre Administratif" on the B line. It has two different names that refer to the same place:

OpenPGP keysigning
There will be an OpenPGP keysigning event after the official program on day 2 to strengthen the kernel web of trust. If you want to participate, please send your public key to er2026-keysigning@baylibre.com until 2026-05-12 08:00 UTC. We will contact you then for further details. If you have questions, don't hesitate to ask using the same email address.
TL;DR: Nerdy gathering where we're reading long hexadecimal strings to each other and show our ID cards around to improve the PGP web of trust. Linux development relies on trust in contributors and maintainers. To enable trust checking and also get transitivity into trust relations (e.g. Linus trusts Alice and Alice trusts Ben, so Linus can (to a certain degree) also trust Ben) PGP is used to sign pull requests and also patches. The intend of this session is to share the certificate you're using to sign your Linux contributions. Other participants can then sign your cert and so make it more trusted in the community. Ideally bring paper slips with your PGP certificate's fingerprint and UIDs and a proof of identity, but the session is also open for interested people that didn't do the necessary preparations to participate in the certificate exchange.
