would we expect to actually have debian-installer/ubiquity based images for such IoT devices ? the archive can not go away anyway (too many apps out there that still need multiarch i386), so we should still have a base for i386 IoT Snappy images, chroots and containers (to run on amd64 classic). i think in that light the classic installer images can go away (we'll definitely still have an untested mini.iso and netinst images around, they come from the d-i build itself, in case someone *really* needs a fallback classic install here) ciao oli
