[P2P-F] Bauwens gmail account wiped clean, assistance requested

[Kevin Flanagan]

Hey Apostolis,

Would you be able to start a page on the wiki where we can document and
share best practices for security?
I think it would be great to have something that we can point members of
the community to.
I'm slowly but surely using gpg and otr on a more regular basis.
Perhaps at some stage we could even organise an online skills sharing QA
bringing those who are more au fait with these tools together with those
who might need some help, tips or advice.

Best

Kevin
