I have started (and never finished) a blog article on how I use my
YubiKey and what config I put in it. I'll definitely try to get it out
before the end of next week. I'll probably extend it to mention the
creation of GPG subkeys etc.

I would also be happy if it helps my fellow DDs to try making an article
about some basic crypto concepts regarding PGP, RSA et al. But not in
the same piece I guess.
