No, there isn't. I've put my keys an the pgp.net keyservers and one can
retreive and use them without a problem.

This should be on the homepage. Check that again, please!

I've had no problem submitting keys and seeing them propagate (I used
www.keyserver.net originally). However, I often have problems with
response (or lack of) from a particular keyserver used for lookup.

Cheers. Must have misspelt it the first time.

If the universe were simple enough to be understood, we would be too
simple to understand it.

These sort of questions are becoming more and more common, and I think it
has to do with the poor layout of the GnuPG website (even I have to dig
around for the mailing list info if I have to reference it). I think
there should be a top-level section of the website entitled
"Community"; this is a generic name that could encompass
currently-misplaced things such as keysigning parties and mailing lists.
