I posted a reply noting it’s not clear from the GitHub issue whether they were 
trying to contact the HKPS pool or trying to access the non-HKPS pool with SSL. 
In the linked Endeavour thread, Ben mentions:
It appears to be an error with the SSL certificate of pool.sks-keyservers.net 
<http://pool.sks-keyservers.net/>. The server is providing a certificate for 
pgp.ocf.berkeley.edu.

EDIT: The certificate is also expired.

That will never work, because pool.sks-keyservers.net 
<http://pool.sks-keyservers.net/> only supports unencrypted connections when 
using the CNAME. Going to an individual server in the pool and trying to use 
HKPS/HTTPS (e.g. hkps://pgp.ocf.berkeley.edu) might work on it’s own assuming 
it has a publicly trusted SSL certificate configured. And unless the OCF 
keyserver admins had to intervene an manually update it looks like their Lets 
Encrypt SSL certificate should have been valid 5 days ago when that thread was 
created as it was minted over a month prior on June 23, 2020.
