That may work, but: * it's gpg generating that query, not me by hand, so i can't easily change it (and i certainly can't change it for everyone who i want to support). * the exact same query (with exact=on) *works* against SKS 1.1.0, and also against pgp.mit.edu, which reports itself as "pks_www/0.9.6" This makes me think that what we're seeing is a bug in older versions of SKS that could cause serious incompatibilities. The reason i found it was a report from a user who was having difficulty searching for keys from the keyservers by keyid. --dkg
