I'd really like to see it fixed, so if there is a contact let's get on it.

I've been told the MIT system is unmaintained and broken[1].

Please start using subkeys.pgp.net

[1] Dec 25 23:33:28 <weasel> pgp.mit.edu is broken.  It mangles keys,
including but not limited to dropping subkeys, moving binding sigs
around, duplicating user ids, modifying signature subpackages,
calculating keyids wrong, rejecting keys with attribute UIDs.  Use
subkeys.pgp.net instead.
