It is appropriate only to list yourself in the city that you reside in. 
  However, it is also appropriate (and encouraged) to put a time-limited 
listing up when you are going to travel to other cities.  The duration 
of the "event" should be no longer than your actual presence in the 
city you're traveling to.

That wouldn't be appropriate.  Keysigning protocol typically requires a 
face-to-face meeting complete with legal identification to prove you 
are who you say you are.

That said, I've tried (unsuccessfully) to contact the Baltimore LUG to 
set up a keysigning and drive down there from where I live 
(Philadelphia) but I haven't heard any response.  :-(  If it's only 
going to be like 5 people I don't particularly want to drive down for 
that but for keysignings with ~20+ people attending I'm game for a road 
trip.  I'm connected directly to the strong set in TriLUG as well as 
PLUG (Philadelphia LUG) so that would be the next best thing to getting 
to a TriLUG keysigning I suppose.  I'm hoping to make it back down to 
Raleigh in the coming months and will try to arrange my visit in such a 
timeframe that I can get to a keysigning there and can firm up my 
placement in the WoT there acting as a sort of Johnny Cryptoseed 
between the LUGs.
