It's working fine for me. Some of the resources, such as people.debian.org,
still aren't back, but otherwise it's been fine.

There's a problem with this? ;-)

It comes up in English for me. Guess I should adjust my language choice.

Looks like packages.debian.org still hasn't been brought back online.

The cleanup status hasn't been updated for a while either.

At least they got the word out and let people know there was a problem. I
think debian handled this much better than the FSF has handled either of th=

breakins they discovered this year.

Check your language setup in your browser. Did your woody install start lif=

as a Knoppix install?
