Roman Pavlik said on Feb 29 on keyserver-folk that he upgraded his
keyserver and now all three supported fetching keys by subkeyids.

David asked about the criteria for inclusion in subkeys.pgp.net in
the message which had started that thread on keyserver-folk.
Roman suggested to simply ask the whois contact to add a keyserver to
the rotation.  Thomas Sjögren apparently asked for keys.se.linux.org to
be included, and I did the same for keyserver.noreply.org.

Yaron said in private email yesterday, that keyserver.bu.edu is not
under his direct administrative control and that he suspects it got
rebooted.  He promised to take a look at it.
