There has been quite a flurry of open source projects getting hacked as of late (kernel.org comes to mind, but I think there were 1 or 2 others as well). Does anyone know if these different hacks are related to each other in any way?
No doubt, but that doesn't explain why all these sites have suddenly become vulnerable. Unless someone with unusual hacking capabilities only started trying recently.
I don't see your point. There are no countries that would have only recently developed an interest in hacking such sites and have the capability to do so. Clearly you're trying to imply that some country is behind this, so feel free to just say it out loud instead of being cute about it and wasting everyone's time.

It's an internet forum, not a court of law. OK? I am speculating. When someone does something this big, I tend to think of someone way out there, like those that tried to hack Google, defense companies etc. For all we know they did to get the info from one company, steal CC from a million of them, or just have the option to take million of sites offline. Relax.
