I've put in a 302 redirect into nginx on the website to tell it to redirect anyone going to inkscape.org/ to inkscape.org/en/ if you notice that the website is now always going to english on this page, that is intended.
The background to this is that 20% of the webserver's resources were being used redirecting people from / to their language of choice like /de/ or /fr/ and the code and the database queries were /really/ very bad.
Despite the loss in automatic language redirection for the landing page, please open a bug report in lp:inkscape-web if you need this feature. It'll take a while to write something that isn't quite so demanding on the resources of the machine.
You should notice a slight speed improvement on the website.
