Hockeypuck 2.0-b2 is a beta-quality preview release that's ready for community evaluation & testing. 2.0 includes several important features including:

• Much improved performance and stability in the SKS recon protocol package, including fixes for memory leaks and crashes.
• Support for more nuanced network deployment scenarios, including separate routing / reverse-proxying of HTTP and recon protocols, IPv6, and a CIDR whitelist for inbound recon peers.
• Custom JSON document model for OpenPGP key material (/pks/lookup?op=index&options=json), which may be useful to integrators and web application developers.
  
• User-customizable templates (which use the same JSON document model for generating HTML).

What's still missing:

• Instructions and tools supporting an upgrade migration from Hockeypuck 1.0.
• Polished documentation on all the cool new features.

I'll be putting on the final touches in the next few weeks -- especially documentation. In the meantime, if you are interested in Hockeypuck and some of these improvements, I'd encourage you to give 2.0-b2 a try. Feedback is most welcome.
