It was supersceded by a repost with a GPG signature.  Which I validated
before submitting the item to Slashdot.

www.debian.org wasn't updated for a time after the compromise because it
was among the affected servers.


There's been a bit of talk about a disaster recovery plan, including
fallback communications channels.  Things were rather ad hoc this time
around.
