The machine readable, verbose index (?op=vindex&options=mr) should show signatures, just like the non machine readable index. I think this is only logical. (I like that you included signatures in the JSONFormat.)

I hope this does not conflict with https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-shaw-openpgp-hkp-00#section-5.2 that defines Machine Readable Indexes.

I think this would be fine. SKS already emits a placeholder uat:::: record[1], which isn't in the draft spec. Clients should ignore record prefixes for those they're not equipped to handle.

How about:
sig:<signing key ID>:<creation date>:<expiration date>:<flags>

Thanks. What about certification level? Or what do you mean by flags?

SKS already emits "uat" placeholders. Other keyservers might emit
other fields such as "sig". See [1].
