As reported on
slashdot, the Gnome.org website was believed to have been compromised:
From the Gnome.org mailing list:
-------------------------------------------------
We've discovered evidence of an intrusion on the server
hosting
www.gnome.org and other gnome.org websites.
At the present time, we think that the released gnome
sources and the gnome source code repository are unaffected.
We are investigating further and will provide updates
as we know more. We hope to have the essential services
hosted on the affected machine up and running again as soon
as possible.

Will be interesting to see if the next Gnome release gets postponed as a result.
