"Debian 3.0 is much more secure that previous releases. The base installation
provides
fewer unnecessary services that might be the target of an attack. Additionally,
Debian 3.0
includes many more security applications, such as firewall administration,
server
hardening and intrusion detection. The packaging system has also been improved
so it can
be configured to automatically check digital signatures. Thus, it will refuse
to install
packages from Debian that do not verify correctly, limiting the possibility of
trojan packages and making it easier for systems to automatically upgrade over

"Debian 3.0 has much better internationalization than previous releases thanks
to the ongoing
work of translation teams. Debian includes default settings for more
languages than previous releases, and more of its programs are international
ready.
This includes the installation, which is translated to a number of

simply be confused by those words in this context
languages. There is extensive support for at least French, German, Italian,
Japanese
and Spanish, and there are more than fifteen active translation teams. See
