Great, thanks! I just merged this. Now my Hockeypuck server appears in
the statistics.
In my hockeypuck configuration i've set Version to 1.1.6+ and
Software
to SKS
Hockeypuck is blacklisted in the sks-keyservers.net code, because it
was not good enough to be incorporated into the pool when Kristian
wrote the code. Now, it seems to be in the same ballpark as SKS.
Asking Kristian to remove the Hockeypuck ban resulted in him explaining
that he does not plan to change the code or accept changes; instead, we
should set up our own fork of his code.
I think this leaves us with the following ways to progress:
a) We leave it as is, Hockeypuck is fine, but just not in the pool.
b) We create a second pool, where Hockeypuck is acceptable (and
probably SKS as well).
c) We agree that Hockeypuck lying to be SKS is accepted in the pool,
and maybe even recommended.
I would favor (c), plus keeping the version number in the 2.x range, so
that experts still can tell the difference.
Opinions?
