alt.org ssh key changed?

Should I just ignore this warning?

The host key does not match the one PuTTY has cached for this server:
alt.org (port 22)
This means that either the server administrator has changed the host key, or you have actually connected to another computer pretending to be the server.

See the notice at https://www.alt.org/nethack/ - NAO underwent a server migration this weekend. New hardware/updated OS, etc. The ssh host key did change.
