    David,

       From what I can see, it looks as if they've just guessed a possible weak
    password in the 'juha' account. Most defacement "hackers" wouldn't pass up
    an opportunity to deface the main domain, if they had access to it. I don't
    think that users.uk.freebsd.org was compromised to give these people any
    special access above a user account. That's just my opinion. However, I
    would alert the users.uk.freebsd.org administration about this as soon as
    possible; for it shouldn't be taken lightly.

    What always bugged me was how poor spelling these so called "hackers"
    display.
