As of Saturday the RSS feeds for the New Extensions, Recently Updated pages are blocked to me.
Code:
Warning: fopen(/home/ext/public_html/httpbl.txt) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/ext/public_html/plugins/system/httpbl.php on line 169
Warning: fputs() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /home/ext/public_html/plugins/system/httpbl.php on line 174
Warning: fclose() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /home/ext/public_html/plugins/system/httpbl.php on line 178
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/ext/public_html/plugins/system/httpbl.php:169) in /home/ext/public_html/plugins/system/httpbl.php on line 193

Then I see the HTTPBL block notice that I can't get past. My IP address has a score of zero at Project Honey Pot so it shouldn't trigger the block.

Same here! I think it started yesterday. My Joomla rss page on my site wouldn't load and opening the links from the main Joomla extension site gives the same error as CMBAY above.

Note it is only the NEW extensions feed that is broken and not the Updated extensions. So clearly the problem is with the website and not our internet connections being blocked

The Recently Updated feed came back to life for me yesterday (about 12 hours ago) but it's bad again now. The last good feed I have from New Extensions is last Friday's.

Is the Joomla site still back on version 1.5? The problem extension, HTTPBL, is only available for 1.5. If the Joomla site is at 2.5 and they somehow installed HTTPBL, that could explain the failure.

As far as I know the feeds.joomla.org site is hosted by the google feedburner service, so this error would not have anything to do with Joomla! 1.5 or Joomla! 2.5, would it?

Quick Update, both feeds seems to be working again:
http://feeds.joomla.org/JoomlaExtensions
http://feeds.joomla.org/JoomlaExtensionsUpdated

Yes, both feeds are alive again. Updated has worked on and off since Friday. This morning I successfully received the New Extensions feed for the first time since Friday.
