Proposal: Let us run a keyserver

Dear Fellow friends of GnuPG,

there has been a discussion between our members Daniel and Andre [1]
which touched the point that we need more keyservers to be more decentral
especially when thinking hkps and Tor.

When looking at https://sks-keyservers.net/status/
we see only three Tor and four hkps servers.

So what about rending a server and running a keyserver as e.V.?
(Depending on what it takes, maybe we can find someone to sponsor the 
administration time necessary. Does someone know how much admin time it would 
take?)

What do you think?
Is this a good use of our resources?

Best Regards,
Bernhard
