The Swedish Pirate Party is not currently under attack, and has not  
been under attack in any perceptible way for the last month. (I just  
checked the traffic graphs for a month going back, we've rarely got  
more than a few 100 kbit/s of inbound traffic.)

However, we've had some downtime today because of technical issues -  
not because of a DOS attack. It's possible somebody saw that our site  
was down while their site was being DoSed and jumped to conclusions.

To me it sounds strange if a coordinated attack on international  
Pirate Party systems would happen and omit the Swedish Pirate Party -  
we are after all a very high profile target in terms of Pirate  
Parties, since we have had electoral successes and have a member of  
the European Parliament.

I'm sorry, the Swedish Pirate Party can not send system logs to third  
parties because of privacy concerns.
