I strongly disagree that the pool should be shutdown. As long as
there are people willing to operate servers, I think the pool
should be available to join.

There is no prominent alternative for _decentralized_ public key
sharing. Keybase is centralized, as is keys.openpgp.org. I would
argue that there must be a good decentralized alternative before
shutting down this pool.

That being said, my server is currently down due to the issues
with Issue #61[1], but I would love to rejoin whenever it is
fixed or when I find the time to write my own compatible server.
So I understand that I am just talking, rather than acting to
solve the issues currently. I just hope the pool hangs on until
I (or someone else equally motivated) can tackle the existing
issues with the keyservers in the pool.
