On the subject of port numbers:
In the SKS stats page, would it be possible to make "keyserver... 11370"
link to that stats page on each server?
Sadly, I don't think this is possible, at least not without some
mildly ugly hacks. The problem is that SKS hosts only know each
other's reconciliation ports, not their HTTP ports. And there's no
required relationship between the reconciliation ports and HTTP ports.
You could guess, of course. Or you could keep track of your gossip
partner's HTTP ports when you learn what they are during the course of
a reconciliation. But all the options are either mildly hacky or
unreliable.
