So what sort of compromise has happened?  I've heard there is some
concern about attempted malicious kernel changes to 2.6 too.  The 
press release should talk about what is being done about the 
problem and what the problem is.  What happened?  What kind of
loser attacks an open source developement server anyways?  I
hope the culprit is caught and made to pay something for the 
damage inflicted if this was done on purpose.
