Bug#717571: wiki.debian.org: Step 2: Make your public key public didn't work

[Ross Gammon <rossgammon@mail.dk>]

Package: wiki.debian.org
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
I was following the key creation wiki, and when I got to the "Make you public
key public" step, the "gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --send-key 1A2B3C4D"
step failed. There was some sort of error from the server. I happened to be
follwoing a Linux Format Magazine tutorial in parallel. Their suggestion of
"gpg --keyserver=x-hkp://pgp.mit.edu --send-keys xxxxxxxx" worked.
