Thanks to Rubin for getting blog.noisebridge.net back in operation.  I
helped a little with some sysadminning and a security audit, but Rubin
did most of the work.

Let us know if there are any problems with it.  I'm not sure if people
who had posting access still have that or if you need to contact Rubin
to set up a new password before logging in.  Of course you should use a
new password on blog.nb.net!

Note that while I believe the attackers were fully automated and just
uploaded spam redirect code, they had enough access to sniff passwords
used to log into Wordpress.  If you used the same password on
blog.nb.net and on other sites, please change it on the other sites.

Thanks for the support, and please let us know at rack at lists if there
are any further problems.
