I consider this a bug against everyone who distributes browsers that lead
users to make the wrong decision about what language preference to send.
You may find the following link useful to understand why I feel that way:
http://www.debian.org/intro/cn. Even better is to read the http spec. :)
Although it shouldn't need to be done, the debian web site has resorted
to creating links from en-us and en-gb to the en version of pages.
It appears that the weekly news section does not create such links.
This will be looked into.
