There's definately a targeting of open source projects and infrastructure
machines going on.  Another linux mirror has been compromised.  There's
worrying developments on savannah.gnu.org, etc.  

Please take EXTRA care to watch your mirrors for 'funny stuff' and make damn
sure that you're fully up todate with patches.

Being a cvsup*/ftp*/etc mirror means that you're going to be scanned and
probed.  Especially now.

Cheers,
-Peter
