Gavin can check the long-form fingerprint.
Thanks Peter.

One or more people who are trusted in the community who have actually had correspondence with Satoshi directly will need to ACK this first to make sure I really did get the right fingerprint.
You know, there is an argument to be made for those people signing
Satoshi's PGP key too.

Thanks, I will add this to the agenda for our next board meeting so we can vote on this change. My sense is that we want to get it right and if Gavin and others can confirm we will merge.
Sounds good.
It's not a big issue, but I'd hate to see some silly hoax be pulled by someone making a fake PGP key with the same 32-bit keyid - why I also increasingly think Gavin and some others should sign Satoshi's key too as part of the process.
ACK, that is the correct full fingerprint.
32-bit key ID's are too short to be secure.
