    First Ebay and then Sourceforge, could there be any connection? They also have a blog entry about this.

    I see that they experienced a hack attack in 2011 and had everyone change passwords.
    I just changed mine.
    There is no mention on the SourceForge site about an attack. In fact, what they do say sounds to me like they are being proactive.
