I can confirm that these images do not exist any more and since Ben who
hosted these (and started the Debian Jr project) did not worked any more
on Debian Jr I doubt that these would have been up to date ... and
neither the Wiki is.

Unfortunately the Debian Jr project is quite orphaned and despite my
regular trials to find people who keep on working here this failed.  My
personal opinion which is backed up by my experience in Debian Med is
that there is always some manpower to kick of a similar project /
derivative (like doudou and iknowforkids) and than it fades out since
these projects are not sustainable and are draining lots of manpower for
things that should rather be done right here inside Debian.
Unfortunately it does not help to explain this - people tend to prefer
suffering from own experience.

Sorry for not coming up with better news

       Andreas.
