The last I heared about kernel.org is, that they wanted to take down eveything
and bring back again piece by piece after they are sure that nothing was
modified during the breakin. That's quite some time ago now, and I haven't
heard anything anymore after that. I guess that the kernel part has the
highest priority for them. The staging servers are still not reacheable for
me.

While we have a temporary place for the tar archives at fedorahosted.org, we
haven't looked for a complete replacement, we still hope that kernel.org will
be fully back some time in the not so far future.

Thorsten
