This is only the case for the keyserver network that has to the large degree gone dark. The few remaining keyservers are either configured to be non-federating (pgp.mit.edu, afaik), or written without that feature in the first place (keys.openpgp.org). > For example, when I submit > my key to keys.openpgp.net, other keyservers (like keyserver.ubuntu.com > that I use) also gets a copy of my key. I would be very much susprised if that's the case (unless the ubuntu keyserver pulls updates from keys.openpgp.org). Last I looked, hagrid-keyserver did not support replication/federation. -K
