If it is a server problem, it should be fixed quickly.

Are you behind a proxy? In that case, most likely you are a victim of this
bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/516032

In that case you could try to add the repositories manually:

sudo gedit
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntugis-ubuntugis-unstable-maverick.list

and add these two lines:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable/ubuntu maverick
main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable/ubuntumaverick
main
