Hey everyone,

we finally have support for querying standard HKP public key servers in 
OpenPGP.js. You can check out the examples here:

https://github.com/openpgpjs/openpgpjs#lookup-public-key-on-hkp-server

The HKP client uses the new fetch api, which is currently supported only in 
chrome and firefox. To support other browsers and node.js please check out the 
readme on which polyfills to use:

https://github.com/openpgpjs/openpgpjs#dependencies

What’s important to point out, is that the HKP server needs to support CORS 
http headers. Luckily SKS v1.1.5 supports this 
(https://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2014-May/049682.html) and most 
common key server should have been upgraded. If not feel free to bug the 
respective admins to upgrade :)

OpenPGP.js v1.4.0 is now released on bower/npm and contains all the goodness. 
Have fun :)

Tankred
