I'd wait until it hits the ftp archive
(.../debian/dists/potato/main/disks-i386/2.2.11*).
The boot-floppies .deb is the package that provides the bits you need to
build your own boot floppies; good if you are creating custom boot
floppies or are working with the boot floppies team. I think you need
to have potato installed to use them.
The stuff uploaded to incoming gets processed into what you see in the
ftp archive automatically.
