It seems some people tried to submit with devtools during the CRAN
vacations while the submission webpage was deactivated.
Not sure what devtools does, but it seems some partial submission was
possible that way (just incomplete) and that may have caused a pattern
that lead to the IP block.
At least we had some reports about the above mentioned szenario. The
sysadmin team tries to resolve this.
Perhaps simply send your IP to [email protected]
for a quick solution.
Best,
Uwe

Five uploads in the last hour may suggest it is a 'you' problem.
