I don't think it's a good idea to scrape CDs unless you're planning to turn them into coasters or something to hang in trees to scare the squirrels away.

BUT PLEASE purge me from this email list! I have nothing to do with Debian support.

Hi,

I was wondering if you allow web scraping on the CD part of the Debian
website.

I just wanted to check with you guys before scraping as I know it can be
Disallowed and illegal.

Please don't - if we find a lot of obvious scraping activity we will
ban IP addresses / netblocks.
