<short> A talk by Simon Law </short>
<abstract>
<p>
In today's world, people have hundreds of connexions. And you can
express these connexions with a graph. For instance, you may wish to
represent the network of your friends.
</p>
<p>
Originally, webs-of-trust were directed acyclic graphs of people who had
identified each other. This way, if there was a path between you and
the person who want to identify, then you could assume that each person
along that path had verified the next person's identity.
</p>
<p>
I will show you how to generate your own web-of-trust graph using Free
Software. Of course, you can also use this knowledge to graph anything
you like.
