<p>thank you for the pull request!<br>
We should definitely implement this consistently and always use one
of the two spellings, but I don't think "Keyserver" is the right
spelling in english.<br>
The use of "keyserver" in gpg man pages might stem from the fact
that the main developer of gnupg is german himself.</p>
<p>The fact that our main language is also german might have
influence our use of "keyserver". Are you by any chance a native
english speaker?</p></div>Luke Letag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/371546912015-06-17T22:09:02Z2015-06-17T22:09:02Zuse the term keyserver (as used in the man pages) consistently<div><p>If you check <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_server_%28cryptographic%29">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_server_%28cryptographic%29</a>
you will see that 99% of the article the term keyserver is used. I
think the only time they used 'key server' was in the first
paragraph. If you google it, the first few result pages are filled
with the term 'keyserver'.</p>
<p>I picked the term keyserver over key server because it was more
prominent in the sources I could find.</p>
<p>But I don't really care as long as it is consistent.</p></div>Helmut K. C.

article.<br>
I personally also prefer keyserver (haha, and right now Apple is
trying to spell check it and have me either correct it to "key
server" or "key-server")</p></div>Luke Letag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/371546912015-06-17T22:26:24Z2015-06-17T22:26:24Zuse the term keyserver (as used in the man pages) consistently<div><p>Yea, I'm puzzled about the correct spelling myself, but as far
as I could tell keyserver was used in most articles and/or web
pages.</p>
<p>I couldn't find an entry in merriam-webster's dictionary
either.</p>
<p>I think all 3 are actually valid.</p></div>Helmut K. C. Tessarektag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/371546912015-08-18T14:52:37Z2015-08-18T14:52:37Zuse the term keyserver (as used in the man pages) consistently<div><p>Hi Helmut,</p>
<p>we have a ticket for this problem. I connected this discussion
with the existing ticket. That means, should this discussion get
closed, it will be re-opened as soon as the ticket is closed. That
way you'll receive a notification. Feel free to open a new
discussions should you run into further problems or need
assistance.</p>
<p>We need to deal with this although it will stir up a lot of dust
in the localization system. I absolutely agree this should be
unified.</p>
<p>Kindly,<br>
steve</p></div>Stevetag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/371546912016-07-05T18:36:14Z2016-07-05T21:22:01Zuse the term keyserver (as used in the man pages) consistently<div><p>Hi Steve,</p>
<p>it's still not consistent btw.</p>
<p>in the menu: key server<br>
in the context menu: Keyserver</p>
<p>as mentioned in <a href="https://gpgtools.tenderapp.com/discussions/problems/49422-compile-issues">
https://gpgtools.tenderapp.com/discussions/problems/49422-compile-i...</a>
there are 2 resource directories for English: en_US.lproj and
en.lproj. In Xcode MainMenu.xib and MainMenu.xib (English) point to
en.lproj. But when you change something and re-compile, nothing
happens.</p>
<p>It took me 3 hours to find out that you can't change the GUI
from Xcode unless you specifically open the xib files in the
en_US.lproj directory.</p>
<p>I suspect the key server inconsistencies happened because people
change some stuff in en_US.lproj and other stuff in en.lproj.</p></div>Helmut K. C. Tessarektag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/371546912016-08-01T18:23:42Z2016-08-01T18:23:42Zuse the term keyserver (as used in the man pages) consistently<div><p>Hi Helmut,</p>
