Last I checked, all (active) SKS servers were doing their part except keyserver.ubuntu.com, which still doesn't send mailsyncs to any onak/OpenPKSD/pks keyservers: http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?op=stats Also, a Debian keyring: rsync://keyring.debian.org/keyrings/keyrings/debian-keyring.pgp has the (in)famous problem (w/GPG 1.4.2): gpg: mpi larger than indicated length (2 bytes) gpg: keyring_get_keyblock: read error: invalid packet gpg: error reading keyblock: invalid keyring and can't be (armored and) fed through keyserver(s) with the rest of the Debian keyrings, as I occasionally do because it always turns up new data. Finally, pushing these keyrings through my SKS keyserver just now resulted in 78 hash updates, meaning that despite ongoing _queries_ from keyring.debian.org (via lwp-trivial/1.41, to subkeys.pgp.net), nobody is properly pushing these updates _to_ the well-synchronized keyservers. IIRC, the same person is responsible for all these issues. -- Jason Harris | NIC: JH329, PGP: This _is_ PGP-signed, isn't it?
