By the very same guy who showed in the past that he has no clue about keyservers and their goals and ignored all comments gathered about this before writing an article [1]. That new thing now is the n-th repetition of the same game: Replacing PGP by a centralized approach, or well many centralized approaches, in an attempt to repeat the story of S/MIME. PGP has its strengths in the idea of not having the one-and-only-distributor-of-all-keys and thus a SPoFailure/Denial/Surveillance. If we want that it is easier to go with S/MIME. An in-house keyserver is sometimes a good idea but a global validating keyserver is a failed idea. Being under the AGPL may also be problematic because the code can't be used for in-house deployments and the AGPL often smells a little bit like a trigger for an Open Core business model.
