I had the same experience and posted a query on the ubuntu general
forums.

        Hi there,
        
        I am currently unable to get keys from
        http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/.
        
        The server is timing out.
        
        Is anyone else having issues?
        
        Thanks!
