Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Spin
The embarassing security breach is not the first for Debian. In November 2003 several of Debian's servers were similarly compromised and pulled offline.
So every three years someone gains access for a short time, it's widely publicized so anyone who pulled anything down during the compromise period knows to double-check what they've got, it's back up with a patch in place in short order, and the patch is also available to the world. Yeah, that Lie-nooks security sucks rocks.

New but what about the OTHER Linux Distros?
How many other were saved by the quick thinking and actions of the DSAs (Debian Systems Admins).

I'd have to say that the real damage is by showing how quickly this is done to fix things like this. Mere hours versus weeks and sometimes YEARS! with other non-UNIX like operating Systems(-s)

Come on, Even the beast cannot get hosts backup and running completely re-install and restoring with a few hours. They have the luxury of hot-standby machines. Debian does not. Though it does have some hardware it can do the shift game with.
