People using www.nl.debian.org with MSIE 5 are complaining about seeing
the pages in _Japanese_. www.debian.org is okay, but www.uk.debian.org
shows the pages in German for MSIE 5 users ? :/
Anybody have a clue what is going on?
In the srm.conf for www.nl.debian.org I have:
LanguagePriority en en-GB en-US br ch da de dk el es fi fr hr it ja ko
pl pt sv zh-cn zh-tw
Another strange thing is that by default apache seems to serve the pages
in Italian, if Accept-Language is set to "*" :
% telnet www.nl.debian.org 80
Trying 195.64.68.24...
