Re: ftp.debian.org has incomplete mirror
A better question would be - why hasn't f.d.o been decommissioned
entirely? It's existence seems to cause a lot of confusion. The other
day I stumble upon a wiki page which points to it,
http://wiki.debian.org/EtchAndAHalf
This page was updated recently and should not have pointed to f.d.o,
rather to f.XX.d.o. Keeping it for backward compatibility for this long
seem to be encouraging people to just keep using it.
