I have not, but if I had to guess, it's directly related to this:

   Colleagues, I am curious if any of you have
         been solicited recently from one or more law bodies concerning
         SQL attacks.
         
         Given this is an open list to the public, I don't want to
         disclose too much information in this forum.
         
         If you have been contacted, would you please be so kind as to
         email me off list at dkoontz () mbc edu?
         
         I am trying to figure out the nature of our request, it's
         validity and magnitude.
         
         Thanks in advance!
