Hi,
although I won't be at ECLM, please consider what you actually want to
use the keys for before choosing the verification method.
Or, to phrase it differently:
Why should I care about an ID when I sign a key which I use primarily
for email?
-> thus verify that the person can read the mailboxes of the mail
addresses you are about sign, not some governmental identification.
More elaborate

Have a lot of fun,
Hannes
