mapserver bugzilla not reachable?

[Steve Lime]

Hi all: Compromised is probably a bit harsh. Our bugzilla instance was hit with some bug-spam. The contents were objectionable, the UMN noticed and shut down the network connection for that server (and the main mapserver site, although that was restored). While I have cleaned out the nasty bits, we (the MapServer TSC) have decided that now would be a good time to consider moving the bug tracking off the UMN servers to OSGeo infrastructure. The bugzilla instance at the UMN was particularly fragile, for instance, I have to physically go to the University to access the server- a major pain. A conversion is being tested right now and I hope we can be up on OSGeo servers very soon. If it looks like the conversion won't be smooth we'll restore bugzilla access at the UMN in the interim. Stay tuned...

The bugzilla system was compromised and is offline. We are also looking 
to migrate over to OSGwo/trac for bug tracking. I'm sure there will be 
an announcement when things are back online, look for that. I do not 
know what the timeline for this will be.
