-  The prodominant keyserver I believe; what I used to run on

   when I looked at it there was no support for syncing via email which

   Don't really know a lot about this. Primarily Japanese development

 * SKS

-  A reasonably new keyserver concentrating more on the whole issue of
-  syncronization between keyservers. Seems to be gaining in popularity.

+  Probably the most popular keyserver currently. Improves dramatically
+  on the email synchronisation method by using an HTTP based set
+  reconciliation approach ensuring the keyserver network eventually
+  reaches consistency.
