Well, we don't because deboostrap output is not the main media to use
Debian for our users, I guess. EMIs/AMIs are such a media for users of
some "cloud" infrastructure. Anyhow I do see your point, and I'm not
sure either that we should mirror or even distribute that: still, the
point is coordination about *when* creating such images, and that point
applies also to the "unofficial images" solution you hinted at.
Regarding Aba's question: I guess they can just create the images
*after* releases, I just wonder if they might want to have a window in
which try to do that just before a release, to look for issues or the
like. I let Steffen answer on that, as I'm mainly an outside looker.
Cheers.
