It has been verified that there was no real attack. We were spooked by a
misconfiguration that caused software that wasn't supposed to be installed
(specifically Samba) to run. Embarrassing but true. In retrospect we do
still feel that the decision to take Common-lisp.net down was a reasonable
one, given the amount of information he had at hand at the moment.

The move to new hosting is now well in progress. We hope to be back up and
running soon -- maybe even today, but within a couple of days on the
outside.

Embarrassed,
