Thank you for bringing this to our attention. For the very short term I
chmodded it 000 so at least it can't be opened now. We will investigate
further and try to find out how it got there.

Fun fact: "resources01.phx.ovirt.org (66.187.230.19)" appears to be in a RedHat NOC, whereas "resources.ovirt.org (173.255.252.138)" which seems fine & shares list functions? Lives at Linode.
We plan on migrating away from the linode machine, but this is a long
process. That's why you see both. IIRC /releases/ is the old directory
structure which we archived. This also means that the mirror network
should not be affected.
