Downloading from ftp.debian.org will download a new installer every few weeks, while downloading from daily-builds will download every day. And downloading everyday seems to me a waste of resources on both sides. What I mean with this, is that if Debian is distributing a file, it should either work or point to a working file. Right now we are distributing a non-working file on: https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-{ArchHere}/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz I am pretty sure I am not the only one that needs to change from time to time from deb.debian.org to d-i.debian.org because of this, or keeps getting unused daily downloads, or just thinking that it will not work at all, by not finding the daily builds. Again, I don't know if this is some kind of bug or issue to be resolved, just that I feel that it is not working right, as it is right now, and wanted to put it to the team's consideration.
