Mmm, I guess this is merely because

  • [2017-04-17] installation-guide 20170312 MIGRATED to testing (Britney)
  • [2017-03-12] Accepted 20170312 in unstable (medium) (Samuel Thibault)
  • [2017-02-11] Accepted 20170211 in unstable (medium) (Samuel Thibault)
  • [2016-11-04] installation-guide 20161031 MIGRATED to testing (Britney)

installation-guide wasn't yet in testing when rc3 was published
(2017-04-09).

Debian-cd people, can you confirm that the CD image build is using the
testing installation guide?

At least, the weekly images seem to be picking an updated manual.
