"We recently experienced a directed attack on SourceForge
infrastructure (http://sourceforge.net/blog/sourceforge-net-attack/)
and so we are resetting all passwords in the sf.net database — just in
case."

"(...) So, we’ve invalidated all sourceforge.net account passwords,
and to access the site again, everyone will need to go through the
email recovery process and choose a shiny new password:
