Re: pgp keyservers

...

very intentionally wearing my end luser hat, i did not find a simple hkps://entry to put in my `~/.gnupg/gpg.conf`. probably my fault.

That’s a fair point and we’d be open to ideas on how to improve that aspect to make it more accessible to end users, especially the less technically savvy ones. Please feel free to reach out directly either on or off list to discuss further. Currently there is no single hostname like the old SKS network to direct the client towards one of the currently operating peer nodes listed @ https://spider.pgpkeys.eu/sks-peers

yay! i chose randomly, and hkps://pgp.cyberbits.eu worked. thank you! we have been very good at making pgp hard to use. we probably want to not do that so much. randy
