install docs and ftp vs http
Currently the install documentation for Debian is on the ftp site.
As it is a good idea that a copy of those docs stay on the ftp site
(someone with only ftp access can then install Debian), the main (public)
copy should probably be on the web site with all the other docs and
simply mirrored to the ftp site. This would also allow reports of
errors in the install docs to be fixed by the webmaster. (it doesn't
matter where the errors are. If they are using a web browser and
it's an error, it goes to the webmaster. :)
Currently those files are referenced like <A HREF="ftp:resc1440.bin">
This makes using the same file for both ftp and http access difficult
(I'd rather not have to edit all the files every time they are updated).
Does anyone know if a reference like <A HREF="resc1440.bin"> would work
from the ftp site? If not, any suggestions?
