No.  Not directly.  That's a separate system.  It was apparently also
getting hit last night.  I see in this mornings logs that lists and
debbugs were both getting hit while I was sleeping.  So indirectly it
is similar in that it is abuse from the network for each of these.
But it's a parallel problem happening beside the git cgit service
abuse.  I don't know if the IPs hitting it are the same or not.

All of the systems are being targetted.  And my associations with
other communities have complaints that their infrastructure systems
are also getting hit too.  The world has become a somewhat more
hostile place with more attacks on everything.  Gack.

I also notice that mailman is not processing mailing list messages.
These messages came to me directly but have not yet appeared through
Mailman to the mailing lists yet.

It's definitely not processing incoming messages.  But I don't know if
the problem is only lists or if it includes eggs the incoming mx
system.

I'll see what I can do there.

I will ping sysadmin and see if we can't get some help for lists.
That's an exim system and out of my domain knowledge space and
requires Ian to work the problem.

Note that today in the US is Martin Luther King day and a work holiday
for most paid employees.  And today also happens to be inauguration
day as well this year.

It's also 7F/-14C outside and I need to go shovel the sidewalk before
doing any more system work this morning.
