Thanks for the heads-up. We haven't had any indications that a DDoS is
happening so far; if someone's attempting to do that, they're probably
not doing a very good job :)

As for the hits of those pages: a quick grep revealed hits by IPs
belonging to a Polish ISP. Probably some bot crawling our projects? I'm
not sure if we should care :)

(looping in analytics@ as this is probably significant for them)

Regards,
Faidon
