jigdo-easy just doesn't support fallback servers, it never has: It was
written before I added fallback support to jigdo-lite, and Anne had
disappeared by that time.

You can kind of make jigdo-easy work by manually entering the fallback
server when you run it a second time.

I've been asking people on the mailing list for at least half a year
to help me with a Windows version. There was nobody with an interest
in maintaining it, so nothing happened.
I recently bought a new machine, which made it easier for me to test
the Windows version (by running Samba/Apache under Linux on the other
machine), so I finally created it myself... see yesterday's
"jigdo-lite for Windows" message.
Testers or even a maintainer for the Windows version would be nice!
Cheers,
Richard
