Debian GNU/Linux

The Debian Project has sent out an alert to the effect that several of its systems have been broken into. These include systems running the bug tracking system, mailing lists, web servers, CVS server, and some archives. The project claims that the Debian archive itself has not been affected, but some (in particular the security archive) are undergoing close inspection before being returned to the net. Everything should be back by the time you read this, however this page has been set up to provide status reports and other pertinent information. Wichert Akkerman has also provided this overview of the progress so far.

The Debian Project has released the anticipated 'woody' upgrade, officially named Debian GNU/Linux 3.0r2. This release contains many security fixes and other revisions that maintainers of stable 'woody' systems should have.

Debian Planet reports progress on the Debian GNU/NetBSD port, using the GNU C library as a base instead of NetBSD's libc.
