The GNU ftp site was recently cracked.  They are in the process of going 
through all their files to confirm that they haven't been altered.  It should 
be resolved in a few days.

Anyone who uploads to the GNU ftp site (e.g. ajmitch, nb) should contact the 
site maintainer for instructions if you haven't received them already, and to 
help them ensure the integrity of DotGNU-related files.

Cheers,

Rhys.

P.S. I keep every pnet release in an isolated area on my systems, securely 
behind my firewall, so if anyone needs a signed checksum of an older .tar.gz 
release (going all the way back to pnet 0.0.3), then let me know.
