Just went to www.debian.org and all the spelling is strange both on
Chrome and Iceweasel like iz for is, and sistem instead of system, etc.
 This is only on the home page.  Other pages look fine.

The problem is that the Debian web site appears to have been breached and thence compromised. 

Is that supposed to be funny?
I have just gone to the Debian web site, to find the references regarding the nature of the expermintal version of Debian, as a particular package developer has recommended using the expermiental stuff, to get the package running, and, there is really not much point, in trying to warn others on the mailing list for that package, if Debian itself is to be regarded as a joke.

So, has the web site been breached, or,. is it that the Debian Project people think that computer security and security breaches, are funny?
If the Debian Project people regard computer security and security breaches as humorous, then there is the question as to whether Debian is to be taken seriously.
Whoever did what has been done to the Debian web site, should be executed.
