Norman WilsonTIL the protocol everyone uses for #OpenPGP #keyservers appears to be documented only in an Internet Draft that expired about 20 years ago. Why did it never become an RFC if not an STD? Is it hiding in some hard-to-find RFC, or more-stably documented in some non-IETF place?

@SteveBellovin You mean it isn't explained in an RFC?
