+ /* We used to have DNS CNAME redirection from the URLs below to

+ * switch to a different set of pools. The problem with that
+ * approach is that TLS needs to verify the hostname and - because
+ * DNS is not secured - it can only check the user supplied hostname
+ * and not a hostname from a CNAME RR. Thus the final server all
+ * need to have certificates with the actual pool name as well as
+ * for keys.gnupg.net - that would render the advantage of
+ * keys.gnupg.net useless and so we better give up on this. Because
+ * the keys.gnupg.net URL are still in widespread use we do a static
