The first encounter I had with debian was with cheapbytes cdroms with
1.3.1 on them. I was mightly confused by the entries "bo" and "boot"
next to each other in the toplevel directory; I thought "bo" was simply
a typo for "boot" that hadn't been fixed. Then I saw the contents of
each directory, and I was more confised.

Moral: make it clear that the codename for a release is just that.
