Narrative:

While taxiing out of the gate, ground control told us to taxi to runway 17 (we were set up for runway 18C departure). The ATIS told us that runway 18L, runway 18C and runway 27 were in use for departures. While looking up the runway analysis for runway 17 to see if we needed a new temperature for reduced thrust setting, and then setting the new temperature into the FMS, I felt the aircraft stop suddenly and the captain saying we had crossed over the hold short line. We had crossed about 5 ft. Tower told another crj on short final to go around. And then tower told us to do a 180 degree turn to get back over the line. We then got ready for departure and took off with no further incidence.
