New Hack.net puzzle?

Hack.net has been updated with a new image that looks an awful lot like a new puzzle. The old link (the hidden dot at the end of the page) is still pointing to www.ninebows.com which has not been recently updated. Ryan hinted a while back in his blog that there will be a new puzzle after Ninebows so it seems as if Christmas/Hannukkah came early this year.

The new step at hack.net seems mysterious indeed, but I will do my best to defend my current ninebows solver title...
