Thanks Thomas.

I just sent a new ticket to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (description of new
oracle-barebone package submission) but did not get an acknowledgement.
Should I temporarily send new tickets to openpkg-dev instead?

Forensics prooved it can happen again until we improve some filter rules
and/or softare in our setup to be more picky in what they accept. But our
resources are entirely bound to OpenPKG v2.0 release engineering. So I have
to defer bringing the service back up for a indefinite amount of time (worst
case until shortly after the release).

This is especially annoying as we have to resolve some OpenPKG v2.0
development and ALPHA deployment issues. Sorry, we have to stick to the
mailing lists, text editor, paper and whiteboard until the root cause of the
problem is eliminated. (technically speaking. We won't eliminate the spammer
;-)
