This was prompted by an announcement they sent out:

http://developer.berlios.de/forum/forum.php?forum_id=37450

It seems some kind of rescue package has subsequently been put in place:

http://developer.berlios.de/forum/forum.php?forum_id=37533

although this was not as widely announced as the closure announcement as
I've only just seen it (I received the closure announcement as an admin
of the bitbake project). It appears the immediate pressure is off but it
would still be good to get bitbake's hosting sorted out.

Cheers,
