Re: security.debian.org mirrors?

No, security.debian.org is meant to be moved into stable when a new
release is made. This means that packages will be in security.debian.org
and proposed-updates for a while.

The reasoning is that proposed-updated contains a lot of packages, some
of which might be broken (no check on uploading & installing). And we
don't want to encourage people to automatically upgrade to those, but we
do want to be able to allow people to automatically upgrade only
security-fixes.
