Mike - perhaps the article has changed, but it definitely says there is
credible evidence it

This is a "defacement" contest - change the web page....
Several acrticles have conflicting "facts".
They all say Sunday, July 6.
some say "how many can you deface in 6 hours
some say "1st to deface 6,000 servers
some say "point system
Windows = 1 (easiest)
Unix, Linux, BSD = 2
AIX = 3
HP-UX or Apple OS X = 5
no iSeries listed
