Just a headsup for everybody. The FSF have admitted that they're primary
file servers had been compromised from mid-march until two weeks ago. The
FSF is confident that no code has been compromised, however should it
appear that it has, then all mirror sites will also be affected.

Anyone paranoid may want to do a complete analysis and detox of their
systems.
