Bug#830270: cdimage.debian.org: Provide localized versions of amd64/i386 netinst iso

["gustavo panizzo \(gfa\)" <gfa@zumbi.com.ar>]

Package: cdimage.debian.org
Severity: wishlist


Hello,

While browsing www.debian.org it came to my attention than no matter
which language you choose to see the site, the green box in the top
right corner
always points to the same iso image,

http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.5.0/multi-arch/iso-cd/debian-8.5.0-amd64-i386-netinst.iso
(as today)

It made me wonder if we could provide images with localized isolinux
menus and default language
on d-i matching the language on the main website.

I wonder if the mirrors could host the extra amount of data, 46GiB
(image size = 557M * 86 languages).

Take this report as the 0.02$ of a non-native english speaker.
