FYI, I plan to go, so I can "become a CA":

  The channel topic is "TriLUG.org | Next meeting: 2/12, 7pm, topic is
  "CA Cert", bring two forms of gov't-issued ID to become
  CA-certified".

 > February 12th meeting - CA Cert
 >
 > CAcert.org is a community-driven certificate authority that issues
 > free public key certificates to the public (unlike other certificate
 > authorities which are commercial and sell certificates).
 >
 > At the February TriLUG meeting, we will learn about certificates and
 > certificate authorities, and we will have a chance to become
 > "certified" to issue our own certificates through CA Cert. These
 > certificates can be used to enable SSL on a web server or a mail
 > server.
 >
 > If you would like to be certified, bring 2 forms of government-issued
 > ID. You might also want to do some homework on the CA Cert web site
 > beforehand.
