We have enough knoledgeable people here to maintain a machine. I have no clue on what happened before, and I dont care to. But I do know the people involved now are competent, and I'm availble but probably not needed.
Odds are, it was a lame script kiddy. Someone smart enough to really 'hack' usually can find a more fulfilling thing to do than a forum. And the 'real hackers' I know use there powers for good, writing patches and advising to security alearts. Most real hackers would have contacted there victim and claimed there prize publiclly. They want credit for it. Usually, alerts go out to the community from hackers, then scum and script kiddies pick on vulnerabilitys already known and never patched.
